Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said the “conspirators” behind the blast ne bar Delhi’s iconic Red Fort “won’t be spared”, a day after nine people were killed in the explosion.

“Our agencies will get to the bottom of this conspiracy. The conspirators behind this will not be spared,” he said in Hindi while speaking in Bhutan’s Thimphu.

“Today I come here with a heavy heart. The horrific incident that occurred in Delhi yesterday evening has saddened everyone. I understand the grief of the affected families. Today the entire nation stands with them,” PM Modi, who kicked off his two-day visit to Bhutan this morning, said.

He said that he was in constant touch throughout the night with all agencies involved in investigating the incident.

PM Modi then switched from Hindi to English to ensure his powerful message resonated around the world and declared, “All those responsible will be brought to justice.”

A powerful blast ripped through a slow-moving car at a traffic signal near the Red Fort metro station at 6:52 PM, killing nine people and leaving 20 others injured.
