NEW DELHI, India (CNN) -- At least 46 people have been killed and more than 100 injured in a pair of explosions that shook India's financial capital Mumbai, according to hospital officials.

One of the blasts occurred near the colonial-era Gateway to India monument -- a famous landmark and popular tourist attraction -- during lunch-hour.

Another blast struck in or close to one of the city's main Hindu temples.

No group has yet claimed responsibility for the blasts but police say they suspect militant Islamic groups who have been blamed in the past for several bomb attacks in Mumbai.
