CPI(M) condemns serial blasts in UP

New Delhi, Nov 23 (UNI) The Polit Bureau of the CPI (M) today strongly condemned the serial blasts in the three cities of Uttar Pradesh.

The party, in a press statement issued here, expressed deep sorrow at the loss of innocent lives in the blasts in Faizabad, Varanasi and Lucknow and extended sympathy to the families of those dead and injured.

''It is a matter of grave concern that terrorist elements have targeted the courts, knowing well that thousands of people would be present there,'' the statement said.

No effort should be spared to unearth the conspiracy behind the dastardly acts of terror and punish the culprits. Intelligence agencies should be strengthened to uncover such nefarious designs and take preventive action.
