As Abdullah arrived at the venue, an explosion was heard causing panic and sending security forces into a tizzy. The explosion sounded like a grenade blast. However, police did not confirm it.
The rally continued as people did not leave the venue.
The NC chief said he is not scared of such attacks, adding “even if they throw thousands of grenades, Farooq Abdullah will neither get scared nor will turn back.”
Those who carry out such attacks will be defeated, he said. “God willing, we will win and push them away.”
