More attacks feared as PM visits blast scene

AFP, Ahmedabad
India's prime minister vowed yesterday his government would "defeat" those behind a weekend bombing wave in two jnajor cities, as th? country feared more ' attacks by a shadoWy Islamist group.
Bombs ripped through 16 crowded places in Ahmedabad, commercial hub of western Gujarat state, on Saturday, killing 49 people and injuring over 160 others. The targets included markets, buses and hospitals treating the victims.
The Gujarat attacks, claimed by a little-known group calling itself the "Indian Mujahedeen," came the day after a string of bombs also went off in the southern tech city of Bangalore leaving one dead and eight injured.
"We will rise to the challenge and I am confident we will be able to defeat these forces," Singh told reporters after visiting a bombed hospital in Ahmedabad and meeting victims of the attacks.
He urged all political parties, the state and central governments, and security forces to cooperate in the hunt for those responsible.
"In this hour of tragedy, my heart goes out to those who have lost their dear and near ones. I offer my sympathies to those
injured," said Singh, who visited the city with Congress party chief Sonia Gandhi and was ringed by heavy security.
Police in the city said they were questioning several people biijttjo arrests had , been made':
"Presendy there are no arrests," said police official Ashish Bhatia. "Some interrogations are going on -- the figure must be around 10 or so."
Forensic reports confirmed the bombs were made from ammonium nitrate and fuel oil, Bhatia said.
Many of the victims were peppered with red-hot nuts, boltsand ballbearings that were packed into the bombs, which were clearly designed to cause maximum casualties.
The police official added that the situation was now "totally normal" in the city, which was the scene of major Hindu-Muslim riots six years ago. Leaders appealed for calm in the wake of the attacks, fearing new sectarian violence.
The army, which was deployed after the attacks to avert any fresh religious riots, were taken off the streets Monday as life began to slowly return to normal.
"It’s been quiet for two days so my mother said it’s all right to go to school," said 15-year-old Athar Kothawala as he walked to school.
