Blast near BJP office will help Oppn ahead of polls: Shakeel Ahmad

At least 16 people,including 11 policemen,were injured in a bomb blast apparently targetting the Karnataka BJP city office ahead of the May 5 Assembly polls.

If the blast near BJP’s office in Banglore is a terror attack,it will certainly help the BJP politically on the eve of election.

Five civilians,including three women,were also injured in the blast,which was described as a “clear act of terror” by Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister R Ashok,saying it was targetted at the party workers and its leaders.

“It is a very clear act of terror… It is targetted at the BJP,our senior leaders and workers,” Ashoka said. “100 per cent,it is targetted at BJP workers.”
