Varanasi: Around five
people were injured in a "low intensity" blast in this temple town
during the evening Ganga aarti ritual, a police officer said.
Deputy Inspector General Prem Prakash said that it was a low
intensity blast and no deaths have been confirmed.
"It was a low intensity blast, and four to five people are
injured," Prakash told CNN IBN on phone.
"No casualties have been reported yet," he said.
The DIG however said that the police were yet to ascertain if it
was a bomb or some other type of blast.
"We have not analysed the blast, it is difficult to say if it was
an explosive. But by the way it occurred it looks like a low
intensity blast," he said.
