Banned CPI (Maoist) rebels blasted the building housing Tetaria block and circle offices in Bihar's East Champaran district in the early hours today during a bandh called to protest the recent arrest of their comrade.
",An unspecified number of naxalites broke into the block and circle office running from a community hall at Tetaria by removing the bricks and then triggered an explosive device in the early hours causing considerable damage to the BDO's chamber, verandah, toilet and furniture,", sub-divisional police officer Madan Kumar Anand said.
