Srinagar, Sep 17 (UNI) At least four people, including a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), were injured in a grenade blast at busy Budshah Chowk near here this afternoon.

It exploded on the roadside causing injuries to four people, including a CRPF jawan.

Militants later managed to escape, they said.
