India: Suspected Islamists Bomb Hindu Holy Site - Fifteen Dead
Reports from the Times and Rediff.com describe the carnage and panic caused when three bombs in quick succession went off at Varanasi, a sacred city to Hindus, and popular with backpackers.
Varanasi, 450 miles east of Delhi, lies on the banks of the Ganges in the state of Uttar Pradesh, in the north of the country. Most of those killed were at the Sankat Mochan temple, which was crowded with pilgrims and celebrants, at around 6.30 pm local time. The worshippers were making evening offerings to Hanuman, the monkey god. At least ten people died in the temple blast, and about 40 were injured. The floor of the temple was strewn with body parts and blood.
Ten minutes after, at least two were killed and panic ensued when another explosion happened beside a ticket/inquiry counter at the local railway station. Another bomb went off by the station master's office. Five people were reported killed at the train station, and twenty injured (picture of station, below).
As a train, the Shivganga Express, set off from the station, filled with pilgrims travelling to New Delhi for a festival, Holi, on March 15, a blast ripped through one of the carriages.
A live bomb was discovered in Gudaulia, a residential district, but it was defused by the bomb squad. The BBC states that two unexploded devices were discovered.
Senior Superintendent of Police, Navneet Sikera lay suspicion for the attacks upon Islamic terrorists. 'I would not be surprised if it were some kind of a retaliatory act by Lashkar-e-Taiba, as we had nabbed one of their agents in Varanasi in February,' he said.

Terror Strikes India, Hindu Temple Targeted

Three bomb blasts went off in the northern Indian city of Varanasi today where at least 21 people were killed. There was a wedding ceremony taking place in a crowded Hindu temple where one of the blasts went off.

The second blast occurred at 6.30 p.m. at the railway station in the city's cantonment area, 11 km from the temple. The third blast occurred almost simultaneously in a coach of an express train that was about to pull out.
Venarasi is one the oldest cities in the world and is Hinduism's most sacred city.
One of the blasts went off in a temple and two others went off in the railroad station. A third bomb was found in a residential area and was being defused:
'Fifteen people have died and about 60 are injured. The blasts were pretty big and I do not rule out a terrorist hand behind it,' Navneet Sikera, Varanasi's police chief, told Reuters.
The three explosions occurred between 6 p.m. and 6.45 p.m., police said. A bomb was also recovered from a residential area and was being defused, they added.
'There was a very loud noise and all my men rushed to the spot,' said Jabir Ali, a police inspector at Varanasi's cantonment railway station.
No group claimed responsibility for the blasts "

Terror Strikes Varanasi: Plus ca change ...
'Benaras is older than history, older than tradition, older even than legend and looks twice as old as all of them put together'
- American author Mark Twain.
Tuesday's terror attacks in Varanasi (Benaras), one of Hinduism's holiest cities has happened just a week ahead of the Indian Spring festival of Holi. It was well-timed (photos via Yahoo) timed to explode during the peak hour when pilgrims usually throng the Sankat Mochan temple with Tuesday being a particularly auspicious day for the Hindu deity Hanuman.
The attack has come just two days after President Bush's trip to India and Pakistan. Coincidentally, President Clinton's visit to India in 2000 was precluded by the gruesome murder of 35 Sikhs in Chattisinghpora in Jammu & Kashmir. Since then there have been several attacks targetting Indian civilians starting from the December 2001 Parliament attack, the October 2002 Akshardham temple attack, the August 2003 Mumbai blasts , the October 2005 Ayodhya temple attack, October 2005 suicide bombing in Hyderabad Police Commissioner's Office , the October 2005 Delhi market attacks and the December 2005 IISc Bangalore attack.
One can't help observe the coincidence with President Bush's visit to Pakistan turning out to be a rather disappointing one for Gen. Musharraf and the country's elites. The United States's refusal to mediate on the Kashmir issue and the de-hyphenation of its relations with India and Pakistan has clearly rattled them. The motive to order the attack from one their Dirty Tricks Departments is clearly to cause communal violence and tarnish India's image ab"

Varanasi attacks
Indian temple city hit by blasts

At least 15 people have been killed in three bomb explosions in the northern Indian pilgrimage city of Varanasi.
At least 60 others were injured, police said. The first blast occurred at a Hindu temple and was followed by two more at the main railway station.
Police also said they defused two more bombs in the city. No-one has so far said they were behind the attacks.
Varanasi is the religious capital of Hinduism and is usually packed with Indian pilgrims and foreign tourists.
The blasts were pretty big and I do not rule out a terrorist hand behind it
Navneet Sikera

Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh condemned the blasts and appealed for calm.
The city in the state of Uttar Pradesh, about 670km (415 miles) south-east of the capital Delhi, has a history of religious violence.
