A large number of law enforcement agencies (LEAs) reached the location after the blast and further investigation was under way, they added.

As per the security officials, unknown miscreants had planted an improvised explosive device (IED) on a motorcycle parked on Mall Road near the District Police Officer (DPO) office.
