More bombs go off in India than Afghanistan
According to latest data from the National Bomb Data Centre, India is among the most dangerous places in the world, next only to Iraq and Pakistan, as far as bomb blasts per year are concerned.

India suffered 212 bomb blasts in 2013, more than double of what Afghanistan (with 108 blasts) suffered.

Facing internal strife, Bangladesh with 75 blasts and Syria with 36 blasts have done better.

Between 2004 and 2013 "there have been average 298 blasts and 1,337 casualties in India".

This is again higher than Afghanistan, which in the past five years 209 such attacks in 2010, according to the data.

However, India has done slightly better than the rest of the world in terms of the share of attacks targeted at common public.
