Agencies believe the strategy mirrored the pattern once adopted by Indian Mujahideen operatives, where explosions would be carried out in phases to maintain fear and uncertainty over long periods.
Security has been stepped up across Old Delhi after intelligence inputs warned of a possible improvised explosive device plot targeting religious sites.
As the year 2025 draws to a close and the nation looks forward to the New Year 2026 with fresh expectations and renewed optimism, here are the ten major events of the year bidding farewell:
After a car explosion near Delhi’s Red Fort killed 15, Asaduddin Owaisi urged people to condemn the attackers. “Enemies of the nation are our enemies,” he said.
The Red Fort blast investigation is raising questions about whether long-inactive Indian Mujahideen networks were quietly tapped by a JeM module. Agencies say these old channels, once thought dismantled, may still hold the capacity to aid extremist groups.
The Delhi blast investigation has taken a new turn, with the NIA examining how accused suicide bomber Dr Umar interacted with female patients during hospital duty. Fresh arrests, a recovered grinder, and new testimonies are helping investigators piece together the network behind the November 10 attack.
With these arrests, the total number of arrests in the case rose to six.
The Mhow Cantonment Board has served a notice to the family of Al-Falah Group chairman Jawad Siddiqui, directing removal of alleged unauthorised construction within three days.
Investigators probing the Delhi Red Fort blast have uncovered encrypted chats, coordinated weapon movement, and clearly defined roles within the Umar-linked terror module. Evidence suggests a structured internal network involving financing, recruitment, and clandestine planning.
Nabi is alleged to be a part of a terror module linked to Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind (AGuH), which was alleged to be involved in the Delhi Red Fort blast, which injured several people.
