A tragic car explosion occurred near the Red Fort in New Delhi, resulting in the deaths of 13 individuals. The alarming incident has prompted the investigation to be handed over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA). Preliminary findings indicate that a local doctor from Pulwama was likely the only occupant of the vehicle at the time of the explosion. It is believed that the bomb detonated ‘prematurely’ as the suspect may have been acting hastily due to pressure from ongoing police raids that have already resulted in the detainment of two associates. In light of this incident, Lal Quila Metro Station will remain closed on Wednesday, November 12, as a precautionary step to enhance security measures throughout the capital city. According to the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), all other stations will continue to operate as usual. This explosion is part of a larger context that has seen increased tensions and security issues in recent months, particularly related to terrorist activities in Jammu and Kashmir. A recent arrest of a female doctor linked to a terror module has also drawn connections to the recent blast, raising concerns about further threats in the region. As the situation unfolds, authorities are intensifying their security protocols to ensure public safety in the wake of this devastating event.
