Two people were killed and nine were injured when a small left-wing group set off a bomb on a bus in eastern India on Saturday, police said. A police official said the attack seemed to be the result of a bitter dispute between armed left-wing groups.
The explosion occurred in the Gaya district of Bihar, one of India's poorest states, where Maoists and left-wing radicals belonging to smaller groups operate. A spokesman of the Revolutionary Core Committee (RCC) called newspaper offices to claim responsibility for the blast and said the two people killed were members of the Communist Party of India (Maoist) (CPI-Maoist), India's biggest armed leftist group.
