About Delhi car blast

A deadly blast shook Delhi on Monday evening when a Haryana-registered car parked near Gate No. 1 of the Red Fort Metro Station exploded, killing at least eight people and injuring several others.

In response to the incident, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs has ordered heightened security measures across major cities in India. The investigation has since uncovered possible terror links to Jammu and Kashmir.

Three doctors — Dr. Adeel Ahmad Rather from Qazigund, Dr. Muzammil Ahmad Ganai from Pulwama, and Dr. Shaheen Saeed — have been arrested in connection with the Kashmir-Faridabad-Delhi terror network. Additionally, two others, Tariq Ahmed Dar from Samboora (Pulwama) and a man identified as Umar alias Amir, have been detained in Kashmir. Tariq reportedly told investigators that he had handed over the car to Amir.

Officials have traced the car’s ownership history to Pulwama, indicating a possible terror connection. According to CNN-News18 sources, the vehicle was originally registered in Gurugram under the number HR26 and was first owned by Mohammad Salman. It subsequently changed hands multiple times — from Salman to Devendra, then to Sonu, and finally to Tariq from Shambhura village in Pulwama.

The Delhi Red Fort blast case has now been handed over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) for a thorough probe.
