Earlier today, a low-intensity explosion took place during the cleaning of goods godown near the Ludhiana Court complex. A glass bottle exploded when garbage was set ablaze, according to police, reported ANI.

“Probably some glass bottles in the garbage exploded which led to a minor blast. A sweeper had put a pile of garbage on fire in the parking area,” said Inspector Neeraj Chaudhary as quoted by Indian Express.

No casualties or injuries were reported.

According to the Indian Express report, ACP (Civil Lines) Jasroop Kaur Batth while speaking to the media, said, “The malkhana (storeroom where police records are kept) was being cleaned and scrap was taken out. A sweeper had put a pile of garbage on fire and a glass bottle inside it exploded. There was no malafide intention or foul play. We request residents of Ludhiana not to spread or believe in any rumours which are calling it an act of terror.”
