An explosion shook the De'Orra - Alehouse and Kitchen restaurant in Chandigarh's Sector 26 early Tuesday, prompting authorities to launch an immediate investigation. The incident, which occurred at around 3:15 a.m., left broken glass at the site but caused no injuries, as the establishment was closed at the time.

Chandigarh Deputy Superintendent of Police Dilbag Singh Dhaliwal noted that the police received a call at approximately 3:25 a.m. mentioning a 'personal problem' at the location. Upon arrival, law enforcement and forensic teams began a preliminary investigation, although details remain scarce.

Restaurant employee Pooran reported hearing a loud explosion, resulting in broken door glass. Despite the presence of 7-8 workers inside, none sustained injuries. The CCTV system was reportedly non-functional during the incident. Authorities have lodged an FIR and are actively continuing their investigation.
