The correct option is D) Smoke bomb. Smoke bombs are generally used for creating smoke screens for concealment, signaling, or crowd control, and are not standard equipment used by Bomb Detection and Disposal Squads for the process of detecting, identifying, accessing, rendering safe, recovering, and disposing of explosive devices.
BDDS equipment typically includes specialized tools for remote handling (like telescopic manipulators), protective gear (like bomb blankets and bomb suits), detection devices (like deep search metal detectors, explosive trace detectors, X-ray machines), and tools for rendering devices safe (like disrupters).
