Chief Justice of India B.R. Gavai on Tuesday expressed profound grief over the loss of lives in the powerful car explosion that rocked Delhi near the Red Fort on Monday evening, describing it as a “devastating tragedy” and an “unbearable loss for the nation.”

In a statement issued on behalf of the Supreme Court of India and the entire judicial and legal fraternity, the Chief Justice extended heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families and expressed solidarity with all those affected by the incident.

“We are deeply saddened by the tragic loss of lives caused by the car blast that occurred in Delhi on the evening of November 10, 2025. On behalf of the Supreme Court of India and the entire judicial as well as legal fraternity, I convey our deepest condolences to the families who have lost their loved ones in this devastating tragedy,” Justice Gavai said.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with all those who are grieving, as well as with those who are injured or otherwise affected. No words can truly ease the pain of such loss, yet we hope that the collective compassion and solidarity of the nation will offer some comfort in this hour of sorrow,” he said.

While I appreciate CJI Gavai's statement, I wish our leaders would focus more on preventive security measures rather than just condolences after such incidents. Delhi's security needs serious improvement.

My cousin works in that area and was there just 30 minutes before the blast. This hits too close to home. When will our cities become safe for ordinary citizens going about their daily lives? 😢

The judiciary showing solidarity is important, but we need action. Hope the investigation is swift and the perpetrators are brought to justice. No more innocent lives should be lost like this.
