The major terror attack in Mumbai in 2008 that claimed 183 lives and injured over 300, re-opened the wounds of thousands of people in different Indian cities. Here is a list of terror attacks that shook the country in 2008. May 13, 2008 - Seven bombs rip through the
crowded streets of the western city of Jaipur, killing at least 63 in markets and outside Hindu temples.

July 25 - Eight small bombs hit the IT city of Bangalore, killing one woman and wounding at least 15.

July 26 - At least 16 small bombs explode in Ahmedabad in the state of Gujarat, killing 45 and wounding 161. A little-known group called the "Indian Mujahideen" claims responsibility for the attack and the May 13 attack in Jaipur.

Sept. 13 - At least five bombs explode in crowded markets and streets in the heart of New Delhi, killing at least 23 and injuring more than 100. The Indian Mujahideen again claim responsibility.
