A powerful car explosion near Gate 1 of Delhi's Red Fort Metro Station on Monday evening killed at least eight people and injured over 20 others. The blast, which occurred around 7 PM in the densely populated Chandni Chowk area, prompted immediate deployment emergency services while authorities placed Delhi and surrounding regions on high alert. Special investigation teams, including the NIA and bomb disposal squads, examine the cause of the explosion, with officials yet to confirm whether it was a bomb blast or gas cylinder explosion.
