"By triggering these blasts, nefarious elements want to prove that the present Central government is not capable of containing them and they have the strength to destroy the country," he said.

Modi feared that the terror strike could be a rehearsal for big attack in near future.

"It is the time for the entire nation to get together and have a firm resolve to fight terror," the chief minister said and expressed grief towards the families of those killed and injured in the blasts.
