Amritsar : A blast occurred at a police station in Amritsar, raising fears of a possible terrorist attack. The police station, which had been closed for nearly a year, was unexpectedly shaken by the explosion, leading to widespread concern. Initial reports suggest that the blast could have been part of a targeted attack, although authorities have ruled out the possibility of a grenade being used in the incident.
Amritsar Police Commissioner confirmed that there was no evidence of a grenade attack, but the nature of the explosion indicates that it may be linked to a terrorist activity. Security forces have been deployed around the area, and investigations are underway to determine the exact cause of the blast. The police station had been closed for routine renovations and was not in active use, which fortunately minimized casualties.
Locals reported hearing a loud explosion in the vicinity of the police station, followed by a cloud of smoke. The blast has created panic in the area, especially considering the ongoing security concerns in Punjab. Since the state has been on high alert due to possible terrorist activities, law enforcement agencies are treating this incident seriously and have heightened security measures in Amritsar and surrounding areas.
While authorities have yet to confirm the involvement of any terrorist group, they are not ruling out the possibility. Special investigation teams have been formed, and a thorough examination of the blast site is ongoing. Police have also initiated a search for suspects who might be responsible for the attack.
Amritsar has been a sensitive area in recent years, with several incidents related to terrorism and extremist activities. This explosion is likely to increase vigilance in the region, with the authorities stepping up efforts to prevent further attacks.
Local residents are on edge as police work to secure the area, and authorities are calling for calm as they continue their investigation. The outcome of this probe will determine whether the blast was a targeted terrorist act or the result of other causes.
