Banka Blast in Muslim areas before Ram Navami gives a signal to Hindus to make adequate security measures. 

Bihar: Bomb explodes in Bihar during election season; Four innocent children burnt, two children died; A huge amount of bomb making material was found in the house of the Muslim accused.

Upendra Bharti | HENB | Patna | April 14, 2024:: Two  children died tragically in the bomb blast in Banka on Friday, while the condition of two remains critical. Police have arrested two Muslims men named as accused, from whose house a huge quantity of explosive material has been recovered. The remaining accused are yet to be arrested. Such blasts before Ram Navami and during the Election season alarmed the police and administration.

There is mourning in Ahiro village of Banka. Two of the four children injured in the sudden bomb blast in Ahiro village under Dhoraiya police station area of Banka late evening on Friday (April 12) have died. Both of them were undergoing treatment at Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College Hospital, Bhagalpur. The other two children are also being treated in the same hospital.

The deceased children have been identified as Qurban, 8 year old son of Mohammad Ismail Ansari, resident of Maqsood Mohalla of Ahiro village of Dhoraiya block, and Saniullah, 5 year old son of Mohammad Saddam. According to the information, bombs were being made in the house of Mohammad Ismail Ansari and kept unsafe, one of which suddenly exploded late on Friday evening and the children were playing outside the house.

SDPO Archana Kumari said that along with children, some elders were also injured in this incident. During the investigation, blood stains were found at various places at the spot, while most of the men in the locality are absconding from home. Based on the statement of Dhoraiya Police Station Head Ashok Kumar, further action is being taken by registering a case against five named people and some unknown people.

In the FIR police mentioned Mohammad Ismail, Arif Ansari, Farooq Ansari alias Zafir Ansari, Asghar Ansari and Noor Mohammad, all residents of Ahiro village. It is said that Asghar Ansari and Noor Mohammad used to make bombs by procuring bomb making materials from outside.

Though such a bomb blast in Bihar during election time is not an uncommon thing, such preparedness  in Muslim areas to hit others by bombs before Ram Navami indicates a very alarming situation in the state.

This year Ram Navami falls on April 17, and is very significant as the first Ram Navami celebration after the consecration of Ayodhya Ram Temple held on January 22. The arrogant Muslims can take a revenge by attacking Ram Navami celebrations across the country.

Bomb making by Muslims and Banka blast in Bihar before Ram Navami gives a message to the Hindus to take adequate security measures to maintain safety in Ram Navami processions and other celebrations. Why the Muslims were making bombs in their homes during election times before Ram Navami Celebrations?

All the Central  and State intelligence agencies  must take  cognisance of the Banka blast accordingly.
