FIRST TIME in India that serial terror blasts have occurred on consecutive days. Ahmedabad blasts were of a greater intensity than those that shook Bangalore. Even without RDX, these bombs can be lethal as in Jaipur. These blasts are seen as aimed at creating panic. This, in turn, has led to anxiety about whether these two serial blasts are an indication of a bigger attack to follow.
Police chiefs from across the country summoned to Delhi for a meeting
THIRD CONSECUTIVE attack on a BJP-ruled state after Rajasthan and Karnataka. Experts fear Madhya Pradesh capital Bhopal may be the next target. BJP has been more strident against terror and often accused Congress of being soft
FOURTH TERROR attack in which cycles have been used to plant bombs. Cycles used in Malegaon, Jaipur and the UP court serial blasts. Cycles now seem to be a preferred vehicle of death as they are inconspicuous
FOUR BLASTS in Maninagar, which is Narendra Modi's constituency. One blast outside Dhanvantri Hospital in Bapunagar, a cancer facility run by VHP's Pravin Togadia, himself a doctor
FIRST BLASTS take place in marketplaces. Several women killed or injured. After 40 mins of the initial blasts, a fresh round took place outside hospitals around the time the injured were being brought in
GROUP CALLING itself Indian Mujahideen sent an email to media organisations taking responsibility for the blasts and setting out a political agenda, including release of alleged terrorists. The same group had sent mails before the Jaipur and UP court blasts. These two mails were sent from east Delhi cyber cafes WHAT | 16 blasts rip through city, killing 29 and injuring at least 88. Maximum number of serial blasts at one place in one day anywhere in the world
WHEN | First blast at 6.45 pm when bazaars were packed with people. Blasts continue till 8 pm
WHERE | Sarkhej, Maninagar, Bapunagar, Diamond Market, Thakkarbapanagar, Raipur, Sarangpur, Isanpur, Narol Circle, Naroda. Then blasts at the Civil Hospital, L G Hospital and Dhanvantri hospital campuses
VEHICLES OF DEATH
| Most bombs planted on bicycles or packed in tiffin boxes wrapped in blue polythene bags. Quartz, microprocessers and ammonium nitrate found at blast sites as in Bangalore
