IMPHAL:Unidentified miscreants exploded a bomb in the office of the Autonomous District Council (ADC) in Manipur’s interior Ukhrul district bordering Myanmar but no casualty was reported, officials said on Sunday.

The miscreants exploded the bomb late on Sunday night damaging some doors and windows of the ADC office but no one was injured, they said.

The deputy commissioner and superintendent of police of Ukhrul visited the ADC office Sunday morning and assessed the damage caused by the explosion.

No individual or group has claimed responsibility for the incident.

Elections to ADC in six hill districts of Manipur were held late last year after a gap of about 20 years. Some hill-based organisations had opposed the elections demanding extension of the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution in all the six hill districts in the state. (PTI)
