PM Modi was on a two-day state visit to Bhutan and went directly to LNJP hospital after landing in the national capital.

On Monday, 13 people were killed and 24 were injured after a high-intensity blast ripped through a car near the Red Fort, leaving a trail of mangled bodies and damaged cars.

PM Modi Vows Justice

PM Modi on Tuesday said that people behind the Delhi car blast that killed 12 people and injured over 20 would not be spared. While speaking at Bhutan's Thimphu, PM Modi said that conspirators of the blast would be brought to justice.

Arrests and Ongoing Probe

Seven people have so far been arrested in connection with the case, with three doctors from Faridabad’s Al-Falah University taken into custody on Tuesday.

Officials said further forensic testing and interrogation are underway to determine the full extent of the network and whether the blast was linked to the explosives seized earlier in the day.
