Authorities have indicated that the impact was orchestrated using improvised explosive devices (IEDs), with the remnants of the explosives forwarded for forensic analysis to confirm their nature. "While it appears to be an IED, conclusive confirmation awaits the test reports," stated the officials. Local reports suggest a clash erupted between two groups, potentially leading to the explosion.

Authorities, however, informed HT that the blast appears to stem from a private dispute. "Following our interactions with locals, it appears to be a matter of personal conflict. There are allegations that jealousy prompted certain individuals due to the success of a local retailer," they stated. A case has been filed based on the complaint lodged by Buddhi Singh, the owner of one of the damaged shops.

Police affirmed that investigations are underway, with efforts ongoing to identify those implicated in the incident.
