An explosion occurred near a BJP office in Chandigarh Sector 37 on Wednesday evening, prompting a swift security response. Preliminary inputs indicate two individuals arrived on a two-wheeler and hurled a crude bomb or improvised explosive device before fleeing. Khalistani terrorist Sukhjinder Singh Babbar later claimed responsibility, describing the attack as retaliation and issuing further threats. No casualties were reported, though vehicles were damaged by shrapnel. Police cordoned off the area and recovered CCTV footage, while forensic teams, including the Central Forensic Science Laboratory, began analysis. The incident has raised serious concerns about targeted militant activity and security vulnerabilities near political establishments.
