An explosion occurred at an electronics store located in Pune's Sahakarnagar, on Monday night. Following the incident, the ATS (Anti-Terrorism Squad) has initiated an investigation into the matter.

During the early hours of Monday, a TV explosion resulted in severe injuries to one individual. Due to the nature of the blast and the extent of the damage, investigating agencies grew suspicious, leading to an ATS investigation being launched. The incident occurred at around 3 am.
