Indian Deputy Prime Minister L.K.Advani Tuesday said in Bombay that Pakistan should hand over to India 20 wanted criminals who were responsible for the serial blast in Bombay In 1993.

Advani, who arrived at Bombay to visit the blast sites and the hospitals where the injured were being treated, told reporters at the airport: "It is good that Pakistan has condemned the incident."

"But the people of Bombay remember that those who perpetrated a bigger tragedy a decade back claiming over 250 lives here and were wanted by the Interpol and the courts, besides being declared as absconders, were enjoying the patronage of Pakistan. They must be handed over to India," he said.

Advani said, "This raises doubts about the credibility of Islamabad's condemnation of yesterday's incidents."

Advani who held talks with Maharashtra Chief Minister Sushilkumar Shinde, Deputy Chief Minister Chaggan Bhujbalo and senior police officials at the airport, said he hoped the state government would be able to arrest the culprits and make suitable arrangements for the future.

On the casually figure in Monday's blasts, Advani said 52 people were killed and 167 were injured.
