Delhi car blast: FSL begins testing 42 samples, ammonium nitrate suspected in explosives

The forensic investigation into the Delhi car blast has entered a crucial phase as the FSL has begun analyzing 42 samples collected from the explosion site. These samples include parts of the i20 car such as tires, chassis, the CNG cylinder, and the bonnet. Preliminary reports suggest the possible presence of ammonium nitrate, though a second explosive substance is yet to be identified. Investigators have also recovered body parts from the car, and DNA samples have been collected from Dr. Umar’s family for cross-verification. The FSL findings will play a vital role in confirming the nature and composition of the explosives used in the blast that killed 12 people.

Breaking: WhatsApp Groups Linked to Muzammil Under NIA Scanner; Phones Seized from Dr. Parvez

In a significant breakthrough in the Delhi car blast investigation, forensic analysis of accused Muzammil’s phone has uncovered several WhatsApp groups that are now under the scrutiny of national security agencies. Sources reveal that many members exited these groups shortly after Muzammil’s arrest, raising suspicions about their possible involvement. Investigators are now tracking down all individuals connected to these groups to determine their roles and whether the chats involved any suspicious or coded communication related to the terror network. Multiple groups have been identified, suggesting an organized digital network possibly used for coordination and information exchange. Meanwhile, in a related development, several mobile phones have been recovered from the residence of Dr. Parvez, brother of Dr. Shaheen both under NIA’s radar. Surprisingly, Parvez primarily used keypad phones instead of smartphones, which investigators believe could have been an attempt to avoid digital tracking. Forensic experts are now examining these devices and other electronic gadgets, including hard drives, to uncover potential data linking Parvez or others to the wider network. Both NIA and ATS teams are working jointly to trace digital footprints and decode communication patterns that could unravel the larger conspiracy behind the Delhi blast.

Delhi blast: J&K Police’s viral post hints at Dr. Umar’s fear before executing attack

A significant update has emerged in the Delhi car blast case after a viral social media post by the Jammu and Kashmir Police hinted at Dr. Umar’s growing fear before the attack. The post, shared on November 10 around 6:10 p.m., carried the message, “You can run but you can’t hide.” Just about 40 minutes later, at 6:52 p.m., the planned explosion near Delhi’s Red Fort was executed. Investigators believed that he post may have triggered panic in Dr. Umar, who was already under pressure due to ongoing investigations and arrests in the terror module. His fear and desperation possibly led him to carry out the blast sooner than intended.

Haryana DGP Vows Strict Action in Red Fort Blast Case, Questions Rise Over Police Lapses

In the wake of the Red Fort blast that claimed 12 lives, Haryana Director General of Police (DGP) has issued a strong statement, assuring that all accused will be traced and brought to justice, “even if they are hiding underground.” The DGP confirmed that a statewide high alert has been declared, with intensified checking, surveillance, and inter-agency coordination. Multiple police teams are scrutinizing suspicious activities across Haryana, particularly in Faridabad, where significant explosive material was earlier recovered. However, questions are mounting over the Haryana Police’s handling of the case before the explosion. Investigators and media reports highlight that despite 3,000 kilograms of explosives being stockpiled, no FIR was filed in Faridabad regarding the seizures and arrests. Concerns are also being raised over the delay in action, with sources indicating that the Faridabad Police had vital leads but failed to act promptly. Another major question involves why Dr. Umar’s mobile phone, active until November 7, was not traced, and how the explosive-laden car managed to travel from Faridabad to Delhi without detection or checkpoint interception. These lapses point to potential coordination failures between local and central agencies. The NIA now fully controls the probe and continues to uncover critical links across states.

Key Questions Raised Over Jammu and Kashmir Police in Handling of Red Fort Blast Probe

As the investigation into the Delhi Red Fort car blast deepens, serious questions are now being raised about the role and response of the Jammu and Kashmir Police. Reports suggest that despite having prior information about several suspects, including Dr. Umar, the police may not have issued any formal alert or involved central agencies in time. Investigators and experts are questioning why Umar’s phone, which was active until November 7, was not traced, and why no preventive action was taken despite ongoing interrogations of his known associates such as Muzammil. Another concern is whether the police had intelligence about Umar possessing explosives or moving with a suspicious vehicle, and if so, why a high alert was not circulated. These lapses are being viewed as possible coordination failures between local law enforcement and national agencies. Sources claim that even after arrests in Faridabad and Saharanpur, communication gaps persisted, delaying crucial preventive steps. With the blast claiming 12 lives, scrutiny has intensified over whether oversight or negligence contributed to the tragedy. The NIA, now leading the investigation, is examining how information flow between states broke down and whether early intervention could have averted the deadly explosion

NIA Takes Over Red Fort Blast Probe, Intensifies On-Site Investigation

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has officially taken over the Red Fort blast investigation, marking a crucial phase in the ongoing probe. Earlier today, NIA officials arrived at the explosion site in Delhi to collect new evidence and analyze the area where the blast occurred near the Red Fort metro station traffic light. Sources confirm that fresh samples have been taken, while previously gathered materials are also being re-examined to uncover the sequence of events and identify the explosive used. A special 10-member NIA team, led by senior officers, has been formed to lead the investigation and ensure that no lead is overlooked. The area remains sealed off with tight security, and no unauthorized entry is being permitted. The NIA is coordinating closely with Delhi Police, Haryana Police, and Jammu and Kashmir Police, as well as intelligence agencies, to trace the broader network possibly linked to the terror module behind the blast. Officials believe forensic evidence, CCTV footage, and digital communication data may reveal critical connections among the suspects already detained. The investigation has now entered a deeper phase, with multiple states and agencies pooling resources to identify the masterminds behind the attack.

Bihar: Bihar Grand Alliance Plans Four Deputy CMs If Voted to Power, Sources Say

A major political development has come to light from Bihar just ahead of the assembly elections. Exclusive sources tell ABP News that if the Mahagathbandhan (Grand Alliance) succeeds in forming the government, it plans to appoint four Deputy Chief Ministers, which would be an unprecedented move in the state’s history.At present, Tejashwi Yadav has been declared the Chief Ministerial candidate, while Mukesh Sahni has already been announced as one of the Deputy CMs. Sources now suggest that three additional Deputy Chief Ministers are likely to be named, representing the Muslim, Dalit, and Upper Caste (Savarn) communities.Political observers see this as part of a wider social engineering strategy aimed at balancing Bihar’s complex caste and community equations. The idea appears to be to give fair political representation to all major sections of society, from OBCs and EBCs to minorities and upper castes, ahead of the crucial state polls.The Grand Alliance, which includes the RJD, Congress, and other allies, is reportedly working on this inclusive power-sharing formula to counter the BJP’s criticism and project itself as a coalition representing every community in Bihar.
