The 2006 Ahmedabad railway station bombing was a blast at platform number 2/3 of Kalupur railway station Ahmedabad, India.[1][6] 10-25 people sustained minor injuries.[4][5] At the time of blast no train was present at the platform, two trains had passed before explosion and the Kutch express was about to arrive at the platform, the casualties and severity of the explosion may increased if any train was present at the platform.[citation needed]
The blasts had occurred at the public call office booths installed at the railway station platforms at around 1:43 am.[7] Gujarat police presumed that due to the faulty timer device the severity of the explosion decreased.[8]
