Delhi Blast Horror: Explosion Throws Victims Against Walls, Ruptures Lungs
A devastating explosion in Delhi’s crowded Ghaffar Market has left multiple victims dead and injured, with autopsy reports revealing ruptured lungs and severe internal trauma. The blast, which occurred late Wednesday evening, was so powerful that it hurled victims against walls, underscoring its terrifying intensity.
The Blast: Chaos and Destruction
Eyewitnesses described a deafening explosion that shattered windows, flipped vehicles, and sent crowds fleeing. Authorities suspect an explosive device was planted in a parked scooter, though no group has claimed responsibility.
“The blast felt like an earthquake. People were thrown off their feet—smoke and screams filled the air,” said Ramesh Kumar, a local shop owner. At least 12 people were hospitalized, with 3 fatalities confirmed.
Autopsy Findings: Gruesome Blast Injuries
Post-mortem reports reveal ruptured lungs—a fatal injury caused by extreme blast pressure. “The force tore lung tissue, consistent with high-intensity explosions,” said Dr. Anjali Mishra, a forensic expert.
Victims also suffered:

Survivors face burns, hearing loss, and psychological trauma.
Investigation: Terror Angle Probed

Political Fallout and Public Anger
Opposition leaders criticized lax security, while Home Minister Amit Shah vowed action. Locals demand better safety in crowded markets.
“If bombs can be planted here, no one is safe,” a resident said.
