Bengaluru's Rameshwaram Cafe To Re-Open "Brighter", 8 Days After Blast

The NIA has announced a reward of Rs 10 lakh for information about the suspected bomber, who was seen on the cafe's CCTV footage minutes before the explosion.

Bengaluru's The Rameshwaram Cafe - where 10 people were injured last week after a low-intensity explosive, or IED, was detonated during the lunch rush hour - will re-open, "brighter and stronger", for business Saturday morning, the restaurant's HR head told NDTV today.

Sridhar Murthy said work on repairing and rebuilding damaged parts of the cafe began immediately after the National Investigation Agency, which has taken over the case, handed over the building.

"The day NIA handed cafe to us, we began our work. We already had several meetings with our Managing Director and maintenance team. Within 48 hours all repair work was carried out," he said.
