India's hidden war continues to burn

The state is caught in a deadly conflict between two ethnic communities that have armed themselves and launched brutal attacks against one another. Witnesses interviewed by The Associated Press described how angry mobs and armed gangs swept into villages and towns, burning down houses, massacring civilians, and driving tens of thousands from their homes.
