Bomb was planted on a cycle

GUWAHATI: Twenty-two persons were injured when a bomb planted on a cycle went off at a crowded place at Bijni in Chirang district on Thursday. The injured have been admitted to the Lower Assam Hospital at Bongaigaon.
Suspicion
Inspector-General of Police (Law and Order) Bhaskarjyoti Mahanta told The Hindu that the bomb was suspected to have been planted by the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA). The recent arrests and surrender of its cadres might have been forced the ULFA to trigger the blast, he claimed.
The blast occurred near the circle office at Bijni town around 11.05 a.m. when the place was crowded with office and market-goers.
Alert
A general alert was sounded throughout the State for past three days against possible strikes by the militant outfits in different places following Delhi blasts.
