Lucknow, India - At least seven people were killed and 70-80 injured when a bomb ripped through the last carriage of a night train in northern India yesterday, police and rail authorities said.
The director of rail operations at Lucknow, capital of Uttar Pradesh state, said the bomb exploded as the train travelled through the village of Roza near the town of Faizabad.
Police said the blast was probably the handiwork of Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) and was linked to the armed struggle against Indian rule in Kashmir.
