- Authorities raised alert levels across transport hubs as investigators moved to use enhanced powers, with major Indian cities, airports and railway stations stepping up security following the deadly Delhi blast.
- The blast occurred beside the Red Fort, where militants attacked in 2000, killing at least three, with Lashkar‑e‑Taiba claiming responsibility.
