MUMBAI, Dec 6 (Reuters) - Police on Saturday said they found explosives in a hospital in the western Indian city of Nagpur after doctors there said they had received a call warning a bomb had been left in the building.

"We rushed the bomb disposal squad and the sniffer dog and they found some explosives in a plastic bag. We have removed it," Nagpur Joint Commissioner of Police Babasaheb Kangale told Reuters. Nagpur is home to the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh organisation, a Hindu nationalist group. (Editing by Louise Ireland)
