Actually the property agency came for routine inspection few days ago and according to them I should get it fixed, wheras its not my fault , I didnt break it it fell off by itself, i was lucky no one was hurt when it fell down

Tell them where to go.
Unless you have lived in a rented property for 7 years it is their problem.

Does it make a difference that i signed a contract which says I am responsible for replacing broken glasses etc.

Is it some sort of law what you mentioned? Thanks

That isn't broken glass - it's the door and sealed glazing unit falling to bits because it was broken in the past and someone has tried to repair it using completely inappropriate materials and methods.
You cannot fix that yourself.

Thanks for your comments. You have a point there and I will get back to the agents , they are trying to pass the back onto me, since the landlord is their client they are trying to protect his interests. You are absolutely right there is no broken glass.
So how is it originally fixed to the door , using some kind of sealant ? So someone used a double sided tape to fix it which obviously over the time lost its sticking power. Had my daughter or some been near to it , someone couldve hurt , can i tell them that in that case i wouldve held them responsible.
