In a fit of age and to teach Raju a lesson, Sandeep, along with his brother Manoj Kumar and friend Anoop Singh, learned to make an IED from a YouTube tutorial.

In view of the original coronavirus pandemic, the Odisha government on Saturday barred 'Bol Bam' devotees (Kanwariyas) from offering prayers at Shivaite shrines across the state in the month of Shravan (July/August).
Odisha's Special Relief Commissioner (SRC) Pradeep Kumar Jena said that no 'Bol Bom' devotee will be allowed to congregate, carry water from any kind of water body or walk on public roads to pour on lingams in Shiva temples.
While this is a popular ritual in the Odia month of Shravan (July/August), Jena requested people to refrain from participating this year. He further said that any deviation will be strictly dealt with.
Moreover, the Khorda and Dhenkanal district administration had clamped Section 144 at all major Shiva temples in the districts to prevent congregation of 'Bol Bom' devotees or Kanwariyas on every Shravan Monday in view of the coronavirus pandemic.
The SRC said the believers normally start collecting water from Saturday onwards and embark upon long journeys in groups to offer the holy water at Shiva shrines on Monday. He said the ban on the yatra is aimed at preventing public gathering.
According to the guidelines laid down by the state government, all the religious sites and places of worship, including temples, are shut in the state and devotees are not allowed to visit them till July 31, he said.
Similarly, all forms of religious, cultural, political and spiritual gatherings are not permitted in Odisha till the end of this month, Jena said.
The Kanwar Yatra is an annual pilgrimage of Shiva's followers to pilgrimage sites including the temples of Lord Lingaraj in Bhubaneswar and Dhabalwswar near Cuttack.
They travel on foot in groups for hundreds of kilometres chanting 'bol bam', singing bhajans and dancing to bring holy water for the deity.
The annual Shravani mela (fair) at Baidyanath temple in Deogarh has also been denied permission this time on the order of Jharkhand High Court.
