The injured were taken to the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>It is not yet clear who carried out the attack and why, but the incident is sure to intensify people&#8217;s sense of insecurity in the wake of several militant attacks made in different parts of the country recently.<\/p>\n<p>There have been attacks at Jatra shows in the past and those experiences tell us that such an incident will pose a serious threat to our traditional Bengali culture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Suspects have been arrested in connection with the bomb attack.
