NEW DEHLI: In a troubling development, five more schools in India received bomb threats, marking the sixth incident in 11 days.
According to Indian media reports, bomb threats were received by four schools in New Delhi and one in Noida. The threats were reportedly sent via email, causing widespread panic among school authorities and students.
Local police and bomb disposal squads quickly responded to the situation, initiating investigations and safety protocols. However, no suspicious items or devices have been found so far.
The schools, which were threatened, immediately evacuated students and staff as a precautionary measure. Authorities took swift action to ensure the safety and security of everyone on the premises.
This is the latest in a series of bomb threats that have created unrest in India. Over the past 11 days, similar threats have disrupted schools across different regions of the country. While no actual bombings have occurred, the continuous nature of the threats has raised concerns among educational institutions.
Advisory to Schools
In addition, schools have been advised to increase security measures and collaborate closely with law enforcement agencies. The authorities have also emphasized the importance of swift action in maintaining safety during such situations.

These hoaxes continue to disrupt normal life and cause psychological distress to students, teachers, and parents.
The ongoing investigation is expected to provide more details on the individuals responsible for the threats. Meanwhile, schools in affected areas are continuing to remain on high alert.
The government has urged educational institutions to remain calm and ensure that students’ safety remains the top priority as they investigate this alarming series of events.
This latest string of bomb threats highlights the urgent need for improved security measures at schools in India.
