A bizarre incident unfolded in Delhi on Monday evening when a car blast ripped through a quiet neighborhood near the Red Fort metro station. However, due to the timing and the sound of the explosion, the family at a nearby wedding ceremony didn't even flinch. The blast occurred around 6 pm, but it was initially mistaken for a transformer or cylinder burst. Witnesses claimed that the DJ at the Jain Sports Club continued to play music, and the wedding ceremony carried on, unaware of the chaos that had unfolded just a few meters away. 'I was busy fixing watches when the explosion tore through the air,' said Ravinder, a watch repairman who was near the club. 'I immediately started packing up and running. Nobody realised it was something so big.' It wasn't until a local boy alerted the crowd that the reality of the situation sunk in. 'A car had flown into the sky, and it could be a bomb blast,' he shouted. Panic spread quickly, and people jumped onto nearby rickshaws to flee the area. The blast left several vehicles gutted and many injured. Several of the critically wounded later succumbed, taking the death toll to 12. The incident has raised questions about the preparedness of the authorities and the public's response in such situations. The Delhi Police and other agencies are still investigating the blast, which occurred in a slow-moving car near the Red Fort metro station. The cause of the blast is yet to be determined, and officials have launched a probe into the incident. The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of being vigilant and prepared for such emergencies. It also highlights the need for effective communication and response systems in place to mitigate the impact of such incidents.
