In the news search, we found a news report in Dainik Jagran dated November 3rd, 2019 from the ‘bomb blast near the mosque, an injured’ headline.

According to the report, one person was seriously injured after a bomb blast near the mosque in Mochi Tola of Sasaram’s Nagar police station area. After the sound of the bombing, the entire area trembled for some time. In the bomb blast, 48-year-old Muhammad Seraj, who was present in the mosque complex, was seriously injured.
