One woman has been killed and nine others injured in a bomb attack aboard a train at a station in the southern Indian city of Chennai, officials say.
Explosions were reported in two carriages of the train, which was travelling from Bangalore in the south to Guwahati in the north-east.
The incident happened minutes after the express train arrived at the station.
Officials told media that the explosions were “low intensity” and took place under passenger seats.
The blasts come in the middle of India’s staggered general election, but officials say they cannot confirm if the two events are linked.
Some Indian television channels are speculating about who may have been behind the attack, but the authorities say they are keeping an open mind.
