Delhi

A car explosion near the Red Fort metro station in Delhi resulted in at least 13 deaths and 20 injuries, marking one of India's most serious security incidents in recent months. The blast has led to increased security measures across the country and expanded investigative efforts in Uttar Pradesh and Indian-administered Kashmir.

Families of the victims are holding funerals and vigils while struggling with the aftermath, including the loss of sole breadwinners. Authorities have not yet identified the perpetrators, but officials, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, have described the incident as a conspiracy and pledged to find those responsible.

Delhi car explosion: Families bury victims, demand answers

A car explosion in the Indian city of Delhi is reverberating across the country. Security around the historic Red Fort and nationwide beefed up two days after the attack. The consequences of the blast felt most by the families of the victims. It wasn't just my brother, but many others who were taken away by the blast. My brother's dead body wasn't found. Only a piece of his flesh was found. There is his head, arms, legs. He was identified from a piece of cloth. Funerals and vigils have been held across Delhi. He was the sole earning member of the family and now he's no more. His earnings were running the house. He has a younger sister and brother who are studying. Federal investigators granted expanded powers after the blast are conducting searches in the northern Uttar Pradesh state and Indian-administered Kashmir. At least 13 people were killed and 20 injured when a car exploded near the Red Fort metro station on Monday evening. It is India's most serious security incident since 26 people were killed in an attack in Pahalgam, a tourist hub in Indian-administered Kashmir in April. India blamed armed groups with ties to Pakistan, allegations Islamabad denied. The incident sparked cross-border skirmishes that lasted for weeks. Two days after the Delhi attack, what happened and who is behind it remain open questions. But public comments from Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other officials send a clear message. The government says the capital territory was the victim of a conspiracy. They are looking for perpetrators and promising retribution. Zain Basravi, Al Jazeera.
