Bhubaneswar: A series of low-intensity blasts rocked the Odisha capital, Bhubaneswar, late last night, leaving two persons injured and sending shockwaves across the city.
According to eyewitnesses, two blasts occurred in two locations such as Bapuji Nagar lane and Barhampur slum lane near Sishu Bhawan under the Capital Police station limits.
