Imphal, Oct 21 : At least 13 people have been killed and 20 injured in a blast in the north-east Indian city of Imphal, police say.
The explosion happened near a police commando barracks in the city, which is the capital of Manipur state. Police say most of the victims are civilians.
No one has claimed responsibility for the attack. It comes two days after a suspected militant grenade attack outside the chief minister’s home.
Correspondents say Manipur is home to about a dozen rebel groups.
Some are fighting for the state’s independence, others for autonomous tribal homelands.
