A live bomb shell was found less than two kilometres away from Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann’s Official residence in Chandigarh on Monday evening.

The bomb shell was found at a T-point on the Kansal and Nayagaon road, which was brought to the notice of the Police control room Monday evening. The area was consequently immediately closed off and the Area police, bomb disposal squad and a team of disaster management arrived at the location soon after being notified.

“We have requested Army to send a team to assist us,” stated DSP (Central) Gurmukh Singh, adding that a bomb squad has sealed the area.  A probe has been launched into the issue by the police.

Police Officials reportedly asserted to media outlets that the bomb, despite being a live one, was not close enough to the residences of the Punjab and Haryana CM for either of the two to likely be the target.
