Mumbai Attack puts India among 20 most dangerous places

London: Terror attack in Mumbai has severely dented the country's image as a safest heaven for tourists.
A British report says that following the attack, India has slipped to a list of the 20 most dangerous places to visit on Earth.
UK daily The Telegraph, which prepared the list, said in an online report that the British government was currently advising against all, but essential, travel to Mumbai.
India has been listed along side countries like Pakistan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories, Mexico, Thailand and South Africa in this list.
Chechnya, Jamaica, Sudan, Colombia, Haiti, Eritrea, Democratic Republic of Congo, Liberia, Burundi, Nigeria, Zimbabwe and Lebanon have also been named among the 20 most dangerous places to visit on Earth.
Although the Foreign Office is currently advising against all, but essential, travel to Mumbai, most of the rest of India is considered safe, according to the report.
