Dilbagh Singh, the region's police director-general, told the private news channel New Delhi Television that “drones with payload were used in both the blasts."

Indian authorities in the past few years have raised a possibility of attacks by rebels using drones in the region, especially after they repeatedly accused Pakistan of using China-made drones along the frontier to drop weapons packages for the use of militant groups since last year.
