Assam Rifles headquarters jolted with a bomb blast

Assam: A bomb explosion was reported outside the Assam Rifles (AR) office in the capital of Manipur, Imphal.

According to the latest update, the explosion killed one while 8 others were left injured. However, the reason behind the bombing has yet to be unearthed.

Police have started the investigation process in the incident. We will keep you updated with the news from the sight.

Assam Rifles is the paramilitary force of India based in Manipur. They have been facing attacks many times by the rebellious groups of the state. The militant outfits like United National Liberation Front, People’s Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak, Kanglei Yawol Kann Lup and Kangleipak Communist Party had clashes with Assam Rifles (AR) force.

AR post near Myanmar border was attacked by terrorists on the Republic Day along with four other explosions in Manipur.

Despite of high security in the area attacks are consistent as recently an AR force jawan was killed in an encounter against Naga militants. It happened when AR force stopped a vehicle due to suspicion but the tenants started firing, which took place for an hour.

The latest explosion can be the work of militant groups but investigation is still on.
