A year after Red Fort blast, empty homes, shattered dreams and scars that refuse to heal

What's behind this

One year after the suicide bombing near the Red Fort, shops have reopened, crows have returned and the usual bustle of Old Delhi continues, yet survivors still bear physical, emotional and financial scars. The explosion occurred around 6.52 pm on November 10. In Delhi’s Shahdara, a family’s house remained the only dark spot amid Diwali lights, and 27‑year‑old jewellery trader Ankush Sharma was among the many injured in the blast. The community remembers the lingering impact as residents try to rebuild their lives.
