A man was killed during an “attempted detonation” on railway tracks in Punjab’s Patiala district on the intervening night of Monday and Tuesday on the Rajpura–Ambala railway line, when a low-intensity blast-like sound alerted residents and security agencies.
The Punjab Police said the device failed to explode fully, with the detonator itself getting destroyed on the tracks, killing Jagroop Singh, a resident of Panjwar village in Tarn Taran district.
Meanwhile, the incident has affected the movement of trains passing through the track. Northern Railway authorities said that the details of the affected trains will be released soon.
