Kashmiri Militants Claim Responsibility for India Blasts


A Kashmiri militant group has claimed responsibility for bomb attacks in India's capital New Delhi, but police say they are trying to verify the claim. The group Islamic Inquilab Mahaz telephoned local newspapers to take credit for the blasts Saturday, which killed at least 59 people and injured more than 150 others. Joint Commissioner of Police,Karnal Singh said the group has not been active since 1996, adding it is linked to the Lashkar-e-Taiba militant group based in Pakistan. After an emergency cabinet meeting, Home Minister Shivraj Patil said the investigation into the attacks is going well, but did not release details. Authorities in New Delhi have declared a state of emergency, calling on market places to remain closed and people to stay away from public areas.
