AAP accuses PM Modi and Delhi CM Rekha Gupta of staging a photo op during Red Fort blast victim visits at LNJP Hospital. Latest updates on the attack and compensation.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta were accused by Aam Aadmi Pary (AAP) leader Saurabh Bharadwaj of using their visits to meet with Red Fort blast victims as a “photo opportunity,” claiming that a patient’s dressing was changed before the Prime Minister’s hospital visit.
The same patient showed up with a “new costume and new plaster” when PM Modi visited Delhi’s LNJP Hospital on November 12, one day after Chief Minister Rekha Gupta’s visit, according to two pictures Bharadwaj posted on X.

“CM Rekha Gupta has previously met the patient on November 11, 2025. The following day, November 12, 2025, PM Modi met with the same patient. “New plaster in hand, new costume,” Bharadwaj wrote.
“I visited LNJP Hospital and spoke with people hurt in the Delhi explosion. I’m hoping for a speedy recovery for everyone. The conspirators will face consequences for their actions. In an X post, PM Modi stated.
PM Modi visited LJJP Hospital immediately after arriving from Bhutan, spoke with the injured, and even wished them a quick recovery. Hospital officials and physicians also briefed him.
In the meantime, another injured individual passed away at the LNJP Hospital, bringing the total number of fatalities from the high-intensity explosion at Red Fort earlier this week to 13. The explosion at the Red Fort has been referred to as a “terrorist incident” by the government. According to officials, Dr. Umar Nabi, the driver of the automobile loaded with explosives, planned the attack on December 6, the anniversary of the destruction of the Babri Mosque.

Authorities also thought the terrorists intended to carry out an attack akin to the 2008 Mumbai attack.
The family of each person killed in the explosion would receive an ex gratia payment of Rs 10 lakh from the Delhi government. The Chief Minister said in an official statement that those who were permanently incapacitated would receive Rs 5 lakh in compensation, those who were seriously injured would receive Rs 2 lakh, and those who were only slightly hurt would receive Rs 20,000.
