1. In February 2002, a train carriage of the Sabarmati Express was burned by a Muslim mob at the Godhra railway station in Gujarat, resulting in the death of fifty-nine Hindu pilgrims.

These incidents continue to be the subject of heated debates in India, with many quarters alleging that the violence on the Muslims was a state-sanctioned pogrom (see Sinha and Suppes).
