It was a bloody May Day for India as a young woman was killed and 14 others were badly injured when two low-intensity bombs exploded within five minutes on two coaches of the Bangalore-Guwahati train at Chennai railway station. Reports state that the Guwahati-bound train arrived late in Chennai by about an hour at 7.05 am at platform number 9 and, in a span of five minutes, two low-intensity bombs exploded in S4 and S5 coaches. The 22-year-old who lost her life in the explosion has been identified as Swati, who was travelling to Guntur via Vijayawada, and the injured are undergoing treatment at the state-run Rajiv Gandhi Hospital.

Post that, of course, reports have poured in about politicians rushing to the spot, condemnation by many and shouts of ire by the opposition.
