The bomb disposal squad is examining the materials used for the blast.

The blast damaged the wall of a mobile shop close to a new wine shop near Delhi Mistan Bhandar around 6.30 pm

According to the nearby residents , there was a loud noise and some of them felt it as thunder accompanied by lightning while others thought it was a tyre burst.

What annoyed the residents was that there was darkness on the strech of the road before the blast took place.

The miscreants took advantage of the darkness, they said.

The residents wanted the government to  install street lights.

However, no one has claimed responsibility.

In August last year, a blast at Laitumkhrah market had injured a lady and damaged a tea stall.
