Islamic militants to target more Hindu temples: Indian PM.
(From Agence France Presse)
Indian Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee warned that his government had information that more Hindu temples were likely to be targeted by Muslim militants.
"More temples can be targeted. We have information in this regard," the Press Trust of India quoted Vajpayee as saying in the northern Indian city of Solan.
"But we will not be frightened and will fight terrorism and win the war against it," the Indian premier said Sunday, adding that militants were killing unarmed civilians.
Two deadly attacks on sacred Hindu temples in recent weeks have shocked the country.
In September, two gunmen attacked the Akshardham temple in the western state of Gujarat, leaving 30 dead.
Last month an attack on a temple in the Kashmir winter capital Jammu killed ten civilians and two policemen.
