Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday condoled the loss of lives in twin explosions that struck Turkish capital Ankara.

"Condolences to families of deceased and prayers with injured," a statement from the Prime Minister's office said quoting Modi.

At least 86 people were killed and dozens injured in Ankara on Saturday.

The explosions were a "terrorist attack" carried out by a suicide bomber outside Ankara's main train station. The attack was the deadliest in the city's history, and has ratcheted up tensions ahead of Turkey's November 1 snap elections.
