The blast appeared to be another attempt by the Maoists to make their presence felt amid mounting pressure from the Security Forces combing the area with the help of local tribals. The blast took place around noon and was targeted at a location close to a forested hilly terrain. The explosion was not powerful and it left only the parapets damaged. The expressway is a key link between Rajamunda and Panikoili. Normal vehicular traffic, however, continued. Rourkela Superintendent of Police Diptesh Patnaik played down the incident, by saying that the Security Forces are working overtime to sanities the areas.
