A two-year-old girl was killed and about 20 people, including four foreigners, were injured in a bomb blast at the Dashashwamedh Ghat on the banks of Ganga river in Varanasi at around 6.30 pm on Tuesday. Terrorist group Indian Mujahideen has claimed responsibility for the blast saying that it is a response to the recent Ayodhya verdict.
A bomb hidden in a metal canister exploded during the Ganga Aarti (a daily lamp ritual) between Shitlamata Ghat and Dashashwamedh Ghat. The state police and the Union Home Ministry have confirmed the blast.
Additional Director General of Police (ADG)-- Law and Order, Brijlal: "The state has been put on high alert. And anti-terrorist sqauds and a bomb disposal squad have been rushed to the site."
Though it has been reported that the bomb was possibly kept in a milk container. Quoting IG Varansai the ADG said that the bomb was placed in some cavity. The rest is being verified. All top Varanasi district and police officers are on the spot. ADG said that there was no laxity as the state was already on alert due to Babri Masjid demolition anniversary.
The blast took place when thousands of devotees and the foreign tourists had assembled at the ghat for having darshan of the Ganga Arti, police sources said.
Sources said the injured, which included some foreigners also, have been rushed to the nearby hospital. They said a high level meeting is currently on in Lucknow where senior offcials are working out a plan to contain any possible tension due to the explosion.
Some people have been injured due to the blast and some others due to the consequent stampede which occured due to the collapse of the railing. Home Seceretary GK Pillai said that four to five people were injured due to the blast while 14-15 people were injured due to the stampede following the blast.

G-d's punishment for what the president of India said 2 weeks ago while visiting Nazi Syria (that Israel should commit national suicide).
-
but then the punishment should have hurt the president, not the people. Very insidious comment, didnt expect this from you Ron, you can write better.

Channel news telling that a two year old girl has been killed, and at least an Italian citizen has been injured.
I do not know if even now Obama and the Cuba will bomb the terrorist camps in Papistan666 or not.

I am sorry to hear that. The population of India deserve to be safe and secure. There are also many Jewish tourists in the country, including my little sister.

I hope India responds brutally to these terrorists...and all of her enemies.

Perhaps some of them might be under the impression that it is the duty of Cuba to do this dirty job on their behalf.

Jews obviously stand by India against Muslims. There are many reasons why India and Israel should be close allies.

It's time to 'blow up' some Muslims... Thats the ticket...

I am very sorry to hear this. India should defend itself from terrorism as should Israel.

UAE-based Indian Mujahideen module responsible
Lucknow, Dec 9 (IANS) While Uttar Pradesh Police are yet to make any breakthrough in Tuesday's Varanasi blast, intelligence agencies said they have traced the roots of the conspiracy to an Indian Mujahideen module based in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
A report submitted by the Intelligence Bureau (IB) to the central government Thursday identified two UAE-based IM agents as the masterminds behind the blast that left one dead and 31 injured.
The blast rocked Shitla Ghat on the Ganga's bank during the course of the evening 'arti', which draws huge crowds.
'Mohammad Shahnawaz and Asadullah Akhtar have been identified as the men behind the blast,' a senior IB official in New Delhi told IANS. They were stated to be in touch with the Bhatkal brothers, who were among the founders of the IM, the official said.
According to the report, Shahnawaz and Akhtar, both of whom were in Sharjah at the time of the blast, are understood to have worked in close collaboration with Pakistani spy agency Inter Services Intelligence, that has been building its base in Dubai and Sharjah only to shift the anti-terror international focus away from Pakistan.
The UAE is not high on the anti-terror radar when compared to Pakistan and it is easier for these operatives to enter India, the report said.
'Apparently, the underlying idea behind the Varanasi strike was to use the city for the re-launch of their (IM) operations in India,' the IB official said.
Meanwhile, the state police are waiting for the forensic reports that would identify the nature of the explosives and the firing mechanism.
'We are waiting for the (forensic) reports that could come by tomorrow (Friday) through which we would get to know about the explosives used in the blast,' Additional Director General of Police Brij Lal told reporters here Thursday evening.
'Till now, no one has been arrested. Investigations are on,' he added.
The forensic reports would be significant for the Anti Terrorist Squad (ATS), which is heading the investigations, as no splinters, remote control device, shrapnel or any electronic circuit were found from the blast site.
'The nature of blast and how it was triggered are two key questions before us...It's still a puzzle for us,' a senior police official in Varanasi told IANS, on the condition of anonymity.
'Until these two questions are answered, we would not be in a position to link any terror outfit with the blast,' he added.
Meanwhile, according to sources in Varanasi police, the ATS questioned two or three labourers for the blast.
'The labourers are believed to have carried out some construction at the ghats of the Ganga. However, after quizzing them, the labourers were freed by ATS sleuths,' a source said.
