Guwahati, Oct 13 (IBNS): A bomb exploded on the bank of the Brahmaputra river in Assam's Guwahati city that left at least four people injured on Saturday.

The blast occurred on the footpath of the Pan Bazaar area in the city.

The injured people have been shifted to hospital for treatment.

Police have cordoned off the spot of the blast.

"We also don't suspect it to be a bomb explosion as no splinters were found and the injuries were due to stones hitting them,"  senior police officer Ranjan Bhuyan told NDTV.

"We also don't suspect it to be a sabotage or terrorist activity from the nature of the blast. It happened in a dump of sand kept for roadside drain construction," Bhuyan said.
