On Sunday, two gelatin sticks were discovered near a route linked to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Bengaluru, Karnataka. This prompted police to detain a 40-year-old man, K Lohit, who allegedly made a bomb threat call warning of explosions near Hindustan Aeronautics Limited Airport and the Art of Living International Center. The gelatin sticks were found during an anti-sabotage check near Tataguni, close to the expected travel route of the PM. While the police confirmed that nothing suspicious was found at the airport, the discovery of the explosives led to increased security measures across the city. The detained man has a history of making similar hoax calls during previous visits by political leaders. However, initial inquiries revealed no direct connection between him and the gelatin sticks. Investigations are ongoing to ascertain who left the explosives near the roadside, with police examining CCTV footage and analyzing mobile records. Security arrangements in Bengaluru remain heightened as the PM's visit continues.
