New Delhi has been shaken by a high-intensity blast near the Red Fort metro station late this evening at 06:55 PM (10 Nov 2025). Home Minister Amit Shah reached Lok Nayak Jai Prakash Hospital and confirmed that 8 people have died and several others are critically injured. Shah also reached the blast spot personally and said investigations are being conducted on top priority.

Initial Assessment: Suicide Attack Angle Strong

• The blast happened inside a moving Hyundai i10 car
• Car was seen slowly driving from the ITO area towards Red Fort
• Investigators say the driver did not exit the car before the explosion
• The blast took place near a temple, just opposite Red Fort

This pattern strongly indicates that the driver may have deliberately carried out the explosion while remaining inside — suggesting a possible suicide attack.

Major Agencies Already On Ground

The following investigation agencies have taken over:

• NIA (National Investigation Agency)
• Delhi Police Special Cell
• Anti Terrorism Squad (ATS)
• Multiple Forensic Teams

Two suspects have been detained based on CCTV sample matches. Raids are being carried out across NCR including Saharanpur, Faridabad, Delhi zone and adjoining UP areas.

Key Evidence Raises Red Flags

Investigators have flagged certain highly unusual details which indicate that this was not a routine CNG or simple explosive blast.

Major Investigative Points

• The explosion was high intensity — sound heard up to 2-3 km radius
• No crater was found on the blast site, which is extremely uncommon
• No traces of nails, sharp pellets or metal shrapnel found on victims
• Bodies did not show the usual blackened burn marks

This suggests a possible new type of explosive or a modified chemical composition not seen in earlier urban attacks.

Car Ownership Mystery: Lead Towards Salman & ‘Nadeem’ Angle

The i10 vehicle carried the registration number HR26 7674 (Gurgaon).
On tracing, it was found registered to a man named Salman.

• Salman claims he had sold the car earlier
• The car was still in his registered ownership

Eyewitnesses also claimed that the name “Nadeem” was written on the car — further adding explosive investigative dimensions.

Wider National Security Concerns

Preliminary intel hints that agencies are also cross-checking whether this incident is:

• linked to ongoing instability inside Pakistan
• linked to cross-border terror networks
• part of a freshly modified Jihadi modus operandi

Government sources meanwhile say 3000 kg explosives were seized in separate operations today — indicating coordinated terror buildup possibilities.

PM Briefed; Amit Shah Takes Direct Operational Charge

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been briefed about the situation directly by the Home Minister. Shah has held immediate meetings with:

• CRPF Chief
• IB Chief
• Senior Intelligence Leadership

He then reached Red Fort site again late night to monitor the scene and review the forensic progress.

What Happens Next?

Investigators urgently need to determine:

• What exact explosive was used?
• Was the device activated manually, remote triggered or time detonated?
• Was the driver the attacker or a carrier unaware of the payload?

Finding the nature of explosive is now Step-1 priority.

Conclusion

India’s capital has witnessed a highly sophisticated attack pattern — not matching traditional blast profiles. With no crater, no typical burn signatures and no shrapnel fragments, this incident raises serious concern of a new generation of chemical or custom explosive being deployed.

Tonight, all central security and forensic agencies are on war room mode — and the entire nation awaits clarity by morning as to who is behind this and how the attack was executed.
