This paper explores various news articles and published articles for determining the recent trends in terrorism related bombings in India. India has been a prime target of cross border terrorism since 1970s with uprising of Khalistan movement in the North-West India. Since then major terrorists attacks happened across India which reached its peak in year 2008. Improvised explosive devices were used in carrying out explosions by different terror groups in India. Car and bicycle were found to be the most used carrier for the bomb and RDX was the most used explosive followed by ammonium nitrate for carrying out attacks across the major Indian cities. Delhi and Mumbai were mostly targeted by terrorist groups because one is the capital of the country and latter is the financial capital of India. We discussed practical implications of these findings and way for improvement for preventing these types of attacks in future.
