A printing press worker from a village in Uttar Pradesh’s Shravasti. Two friends from UP’s Amroha who met for the last time near the Red Fort. A 19-year-old shopkeeper from Shamli carrying the weight of six lives on his shoulders. A young cab driver on his tenth day at work. A pharmacist who left early for a family dinner he would never attend.
Thirteen lives ended in seconds on Monday evening when a car exploded near the Red Fort. Behind each name on the casualty list lies a family now shattered and a future now impossible. The NIA has taken over the probe. Several arrests have been made.
