Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has demanded that Modi regime explain why incidents such as the recent Delhi blast occur during elections, urging authorities to investigate the matter thoroughly.  The Chief Minister made the remarks while speaking to the media after chairing a Karnataka Development Programme (KDP) meeting at his native Mysuru.

Commenting on whether the blast could influence the Bihar Assembly elections, he said, “The Centre must answer why such blasts occur during elections. Let the central government investigate and respond. Such incidents are tragic — the loss of innocent lives is deeply unfortunate.” 

The remarks come after a car blast at a traffic signal outside Gate No. 1 of Red Fort Metro Station in Delhi.  The incident occurred just days before the second phase of Bihar Assembly elections.
