India’s Kerala state is on high alert after a bomb blast at a Christian prayer meeting left one dead and 36 people injured.
More than 2,000 people had gathered for a Jehovah’s Witness prayer meeting in the state’s Kalamassery town when the blast occurred.
The explosion was reported at 9.40am local time on Sunday at the town’s Zamra International Convention & Exhibition Centre, said Kerala’s highest-ranking police official Shaik Darvesh Saheb.

The explosion was reported at 9.40am local time on Sunday at the town’s Zamra International Convention & Exhibition Centre, said Kerala’s highest-ranking police official Shaik Darvesh Saheb.
“Preliminary investigation shows it is an IED device and we are investigating it,” he said, adding that he was going to the area himself to oversee investigations.
The top police official said “a special team will be constituted today” to further the investigations. He also warned people against sharing provocative posts on social media.
Kerala’s chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan, who is currently in Delhi, called the incident “unfortunate” and promised a thorough investigation.
“It is an unfortunate incident. One person died and two others are in serious condition. An investigation has been launched and further details will be available later,” he told reporters in the national capital.

Confusion has persisted, however, over the number of blasts. Initial media reports said a series of explosions had struck the prayer meeting minutes after it began.
Videos from the convention centre showed people screaming and running, with toppled chairs as a fire swept parts of the convention centre.
A state minister, VN Vasavan, also claimed at least two consecutive blasts took place.
“It is an unusual accident. All agencies are here for preliminary examination,” said Mr Vasavan.
India’s federal counter-terrorism unit, the National Security Guard (NSG), has rushed one of its bomb disposal units from national capital Delhi to Kerala to collect materials from the blast site and conduct an investigation.
