At least eight people were killed near the Red Fort Metro Station on Monday evening after a blast occurred in a Hyundai i20 car.

Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Modi visited the LNJP Hospital and met with those injured in the blast in Delhi.

PM Modi drove directly to LNJP Hospital after returning from a two-day visit to Bhutan. He interacted with the injured and inquired about their health. During his visit, the Prime Minister was briefed by senior officials and doctors about the condition of the victims and the treatment being provided.

Meanwhile, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has formed a "dedicated and comprehensive" investigation team to probe the Delhi car terror incident, which was carried out by a Jaish-e-Mohammad module uncovered by Indian agencies, top sources said.

While I understand the sentiment, cancelling events might be exactly what these terror groups want - to disrupt normal life. We should show resilience and not let fear win.

Good to see PM Modi visiting the injured immediately. Hope NIA catches all the culprits soon. These terror modules need to be eliminated completely. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

The timing of this blast right after PM's return from Bhutan is suspicious. Our security agencies need to be more vigilant. Eight innocent lives lost is just tragic 💔

Piyush Mishra's "Ink'laab jindaabaad jy hind" message shows solidarity. Artists have a responsibility in such times. Looking forward to the rescheduled show!

As someone living in Gurugram, I appreciate this decision. The security situation needs to be assessed properly before large gatherings. Better safe than sorry.
