New Delhi — November 11, 2025: The Delhi Red Fort Metro Station tragedy has left eight people dead and over 24 injured after a devastating car explosion shook the area, triggering nationwide grief and outrage. As investigations progress, conflicting eyewitness accounts and discrepancies in the official narrative have raised serious questions about the true nature and cause of the incident.
Eyewitnesses at the scene described a devastating blast shortly after 7 PM near the Subhash Marg traffic signal. According to one local resident, who helped rescue victims from the wreckage, the vehicle involved was a Suzuki Maruti — not a Hyundai i20, as later stated by Indian Home Minister Amit Shah and other officials. The witness, seen in a viral video circulating on social media platform X, detailed the chaos and the compact size of the car, consistent with early ground reports before the official narrative shifted.

In contrast, the Ministry of Home Affairs, citing preliminary findings from the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and National Security Guard (NSG), maintains that a Hyundai i20 was the source of the explosion. To date, no CCTV footage has been publicly released to confirm either claim, fueling public speculation and concerns about transparency.
Adding to the confusion are conflicting reports regarding vehicle ownership. Ground sources initially identified the owner as Nadeem from Faridabad, Haryana. Subsequent local reports referenced a man named Salman, who allegedly sold the car but retained registration under his name, verified by a parking challan issued on September 20, 2025. However, the official version disseminated through mainstream Indian media claims the car was last owned by Tariq from Pulwama, Jammu and Kashmir — a link that immediately evoked memories of the 2019 Pulwama incident.
Analysts argue that the “ownership trail” appears inconsistent, with the investigation jumping from Haryana to Kashmir without a clear forensic chain of evidence. Critics say this lack of clarity risks fueling unnecessary speculation and communal tension.

Meanwhile, questions persist over the nature of the blast itself. First responders reportedly suggested a possible CNG cylinder explosion rather than a planted bomb. Nonetheless, several media outlets labeled the incident a “terror attack” before any forensic results were publicly shared. Observers note that all passengers in the vehicle perished instantly — a pattern more typical of accidental explosions than premeditated suicide missions.
The tragedy has reignited debate over the handling of sensitive security incidents in India, particularly in the run-up to elections. Critics warn that premature conclusions or politicization of such cases can deepen mistrust and inflame divisions.
Beyond the politics, the human toll remains devastating: eight lives lost, 26 families affected, and dozens still recovering from injuries. As investigations continue, families of the victims — and the public at large — are demanding one thing above all else: truth, transparency, and accountability.
