Three Die in Indian Bomb Attack
At the moment the bombs are reported to have no connection with the October blast in the city of Burdwan in West Bengal state, which killed two militants from the Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh group. The explosion occurred while the rebels were making crude bombs in a privately owned house.
