Explosion in Ludhiana court leaves one dead, six injured

The Hindu  

One person was killed and six others sustained injuries in an explosion at the district court complex in Ludhiana on Thursday. Ludhiana Police Commissioner Gurpreet Singh Bhullar said, “An explosion was heard from the public toilet on the second floor of the building around 12:15 p.m. We are examining the CCTV footage.” Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi drew a parallel between the registration of an FIR against Shiromani Akali Dal leader Bikram Singh Majithia and the Ludhiana blast as well as the recent sacrilege incidents. The State government and especially the State police chief should focus on maintaining law and order instead of keeping themselves busy in vendetta politics,” he said. Senior Congress leaders like Punjab Congress president Navjot Sidhu keep singing praise of Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan and Pakistan Army chief Bajwa calling them as their friends without realising that they had become a security threat to the country,” he said.
