According to TV visuals, the bomb disposal squad along with sniffer dogs were investigating the site, the place where the junior doctors have been protesting since August 9. Presently, the spot is vacant as the medics are protesting outside Swasthya Bhavan in Salt Lake.

According to police sources, no evidence of any incriminating objects has been recovered yet.

"The bomb disposal squad is inspecting the bag," a police official said.
