KOLKATA: Two people were arrested on Tuesday night for allegedly carrying out the grenade attack at a Kalimpong police station. Police said the arrested persons - Vijay Chetri and Ashok Rai - are Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (GJM) supporters.

Locals said two people on a bike came and lobbed the explosive - apparently a grenade - into the police station.
It was a high intensity blast and parts of the explosive were recovered from some distance from the spot. GJM chief Bimal Gurung has demanded an NIA probe into the blast.
