India's capital Delhi is blanketed in toxic smog every autumn, but the pollution is already so bad that it's drawn protests as authorities tell students to stay home.

Three days after a car exploded near the Red Fort in the Indian capital, Delhi, killing eight people, investigators have told the BBC they are checking if it has any links to the recent arrests of seven men by police in Indian-administered Kashmir.

Delhi blast: The Red Fort Metro station in New Delhi, on Saturday, 15 November 2025, has been reopened for passengers after it was shut down for the last four days due to the Delhi blast incident earlier this week, reported the news portal NDTV.

The move follows a weekend protest where police detained dozens of people demanding cleaner air, a rare public demonstration against pollution in the Indian capital.

Following a clash with Pakistan earlier this year, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi vowed to treat any future attacks on civilians as an “act of war.” That has dramatically raised the stakes for any retaliation to Monday’s deadly explosion in New Delhi.

India's government confirmed on Wednesday that it was treating a car blast that killed eight people and wounded at least 20 others in Delhi as a "terror incident" and vowed to bring the perpetrators to justice as swiftly as possible.

Those responsible for the explosion “will not be spared,” Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India said. The blast killed at least eight people near a subway station at evening rush hour.
