Bombs exploded across India in five trains, a bus and in the capital, killing at least three people and injuring 27, AP reports from New Delhi. No one claimed responsibility for the bombings, but the timing suggested religious extremists were behind the attacks. A year ago, Hindu radicals destroyed a disputed mosque in the northern town of Ayodhya, which set off two months of communal riots that killed at least 2,000 people, mostly Muslims.
