The Deputy Mayor of Jammu, Baldev Singh Billawaria suspected a militancy angle in the twin blasts in the Narwal area of the city on January 21. Baldev Singh Billawaria said, “There could be a militancy angle. They (terrorists) did something in Rajouri.

Republic Day is approaching. Bharat Jodo Yatra is marching ahead. They want to do something to defame J&K so that they can revive the militancy that is taking its last breath.” “I asked the officers and they told me that only after an investigation, they will be able to say if the blasts were accidental or linked to militancy.

I've been told that 7 people are injured and some of them are critical,” he added. Earlier, CRPF Commandant Kamal Sisodiya said, “CRPF, Army, and Jammu and Kashmir Police are all here and sanitising the area. It is too early to give you any information. Let us first do the investigation, and then we will get back to you.” Jammu DIG Shakti Pathak said, “Two blasts occurred and we are carrying out the investigation. We will share the facts with you. The blast occurred here in Narwal, and the second blast occurred about 20 minutes after the first.”
