Mumbai: It is not alright to conclude after Saturday’s blast in Pune that entire Pune city was targeted, Union Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar has said.

"It is not alright to arrive at a conclusion that the
entire Pune city has been targeted," Pawar said. The place
where the blast took place is an isolated area, he added.

"I have spoken to Home Minister R R Patil, district
guardian minister Ajit Pawar and district collector," Pawar
