From the news articles. The locations seem to be this.

The explosions shook Sirjapur Road, Nayandhalli, Madiwala checkpost, Adigudi, Rajaram and Raja Ram Mohan Rai Circle.

nope... for my sis, she goes for tutions about 7 floors above the house of a very close friend of mine. I thought I would call him and ask to check on her and inform her to come home carefully. But his landline appears dead

But malleswaram is a big community center of bangalore... it has tonnes and tonnes of people, all crowded into a small area which was once the most populated "outer" area of bangalore... its still I guess the densest part of bangalore.

And IISc is right next door, both to malleswaram and my house...

There is only one way out now: Go hardcore... I am thinking of biking out to malleswaram and check on them

[Gigacore]

now they are saying its 2 killed, 20 injured

there were communal disturbances two weeks back, and my classes were suspended...
but I am SURE it was not them because they were just some inncent people who just threw stones at each other for some triffle matter.

UPDATE: My sister is back home safely

[Pat]

Another blast outside Mallya hospital. 7 blasts in all ? Damn it!

[Gigacore]
