The Prime Minister’s remarks came hours after a car explosion near Gate No. 1 of the Lal Qila Metro Station, located in a high-security zone of Delhi. The incident has raised serious concerns over the capital’s security preparedness.
Meanwhile, forensic teams and Delhi Police’s Special Cell are continuing their investigations. Multiple clues are being analyzed to piece together the sequence of events and determine whether the blast was an act of terror or a planned attack.
Officials confirmed that Umar, one of the suspects killed in the explosion, had links to individuals named Tariq and Aamir, who have now been taken into custody. Investigators are also questioning several people believed to have connections with Pulwama, as part of the broader probe into the possible terror network.
