Introduction

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) says ten people planned a car bomb. The bomb exploded near the Red Fort on November 10, 2025.

Main Body

The group is called Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind. Some members are doctors. These doctors used their science knowledge to make bombs. One man, Dr. Umer Un Nabi, died in the blast. The group started again in 2022. They had a secret meeting in Srinagar. They wanted to change the Indian government. They bought guns and made explosives at home. The group also tried to use drones and rockets for attacks. Before the bomb, police found 3,000kg of explosives in Faridabad. Now, the government uses special laws to punish these people.

Conclusion

Police caught eleven people. They are still looking for other people in the group.

πŸ•°οΈ THE TIME MACHINE (Past Tense)

To reach A2, you must move from now to then. Look at how the story changes verbs to show things already happened:

  • Say β†’ Said
  • Explode β†’ Exploded
  • Start β†’ Started
  • Want β†’ Wanted
  • Buy β†’ Bought (Special change!)
  • Find β†’ Found (Special change!)

The Rule of Thumb: Most words just need an -ed at the end to go into the past. Some 'rebel' words (like buy and find) change their whole shape.

Example from text: "They bought guns and made explosives."

πŸ“¦ BUILDING BLOCKS (Nouns)

Notice how the text talks about groups of things.

One person β†’\rightarrow Ten people

In English, we don't say 'ten persons' in a news story; we use people. Use this whenever you talk about a crowd or a group!
