Kolkata : Security was tightened in West Bengal after a blast again hit the national capital Saturday, killing a teenager and injuring 17 people, said the police.
“Security at crowded places, especially at shopping malls, multiplexes, railway stations and the city airport has been tightened,” Kolkata police deputy commissioner Vinet K. Goyal told reporters here.
“Sniffer dogs have been kept at important and vulnerable places like railway stations,” Goyal said.
“Our personnel have been asked to interrogate anyone who is behaving suspiciously. Not only people and their baggage but also their mobile phones are being thoroughly checked,” he said.
