While cleaning, workers noticed a heavy and suspicious iron object inside the drain. Sensing danger due to its unusual shape, they immediately informed officials and police.

Police reached the spot, sealed the area, and called the bomb disposal squad. After inspection, it was found to be an empty UXO (unexploded ordnance) bomb shell, likely used by the Army, with no explosive material inside. As a precaution, it was seized.

Officials said such shells are linked to the Ordnance Factory Khamaria, where weapons and ammunition for the Indian Army are made. Police have written to the factory seeking details and are trying to find how the shell reached the drain.
