Preliminary investigations revealed that detonators kept inside the car bearing registration number KA 41 M 2603 caused blast resulting in minor damages to the vehicle.

The minor blast took place soon after Maxwell Monteiro and his wife alighted from the car after parking it on the road side.

The couple claimed that they heard a loud noise from the front seat when Monteiro pressed the central locking button on the car key.

On hearing the news, the police and bomb disposal squad rushed to the spot and reportedly found detonators inside the car.

It is not yet known whether the owners themselves had kept the detonators inside the car or someone else had kept it to cause harm to the couple.

Ooops. Thank God. It's a Christian couple. if they were Muslims, NIA team would have been in Mangalore already in search of fresh links to Samjhouta express blast and Malegaon blast.

Bengaluru, Jun 8: Normal life is slowly returning to normal across Karnataka with the state government further easing the restrictions by throwing open places of worship, hotels, malls for the public.

Despite these places being opened after a gap of more than two months, the places wore a deserted look as the people are and cautious and not ready to take of risk of venturing out amid the ongoing Corona threat.

"Business is not as heavy as expected though it was allowed after a gap of almost three months. You can see for yourself the crowd, it is not what it should have been in a commercial area like this prior to the imposition of lockdown. However, hope it will improve", a Cloth merchant B Ramesh told UNI when asked for his reaction.

Bengaluru, Jun 26: Karnataka Congress president DK Shivakumar on Thursday suggested that the cost of building and installing a new statue of Nada Prabhu Kempegowda in the Bengaluru airport should be borne by Kempegowda international airport (KIAL).

Shivakumar wrote to Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa and welcomed the decision of erecting a statute of Bengaluru founder Kempegowda at KIAL but he also suggested that the chief minister should not spend state government's money on this.

He said that the Karnataka government has done many favours to airport authority earlier.
