A Look Back At The 2013 Patna Bombings
In 2013, before Modi was elected as the Prime Minister, a series of bomb blasts occurred in Patna, Bihar on the day of a highly-anticipated rally of the BJP prime ministerial candidate.
In October 2013, a series of eight bomb blasts were reported across the city of Patna. Crude bombs exploded at the Patna Junction Railwa🔴y Station and near Gand🥂hi Maidan, which was the site of Modi's rally.
The bomb blasts at the Hunkar Rally and Patna citꦍy killed six people and injured 85 others.
Tꦉhe first blast was reported at 9:30 AM from a public toilet at Patna Junction Railway Station. The remaining bombs exploded from 12:10 PM to 5:15 PM near Gandhi Maidan, with the last one being 𒁏on the site of the rally.
As per an investigation led by ♈the NIA, an elaborate plan had been set in place by the accused to t⛄arget Modi's election rallies.
In 2021, members of the Indian Mujahideen and the Students' Islamic Movement of India were convicted for carrying out the attacks, despite no group claiming responsibility💝 for the blasts.
