http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Bomb-blasts-overshadow-Hillary-Clintons-India-visit/articleshow/9267828.cmsNEW DELHI: US secretary of state Hillary Clinton arrives in India on Monday for a three-day visit overshadowed by the triple blasts in Mumbai last week that killed 19 people and injured more than 100.
No-one has claimed responsibility for Wednesday's attack and the initial police investigation has failed to unearth any clear leads on the blasts that also came ahead of a new round of India-Pakistan peace talks later this month.
New Delhi has tried to avoid being seen to point the finger at its neighbour but India accuses Pakistan's army and intelligence services of aiding militant groups that have carried out attacks on Indian soil in the past.
For Clinton, any Pakistani involvement would again see her under pressure to drop US military support for Islamabad during her talks with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Tuesday. She heads to Chennai the following day.
