New Delhi, Aug 18 (UNI) Panic gripped several schools across Delhi-NCR today following bomb threats received through emails, prompting immediate evacuation and heightened security measures.
The incident is the latest among a series of similar threats that disrupted academic activities in recent months.
Schools, including DPS Dwarka, Modern Convent School (Sector 4), and Shriram World School (Dwarka Sector 10) were among those targeted. Authorities swiftly alerted parents to recall their children as a precautionary measure.
In messages sent to parents, school administrations assured them of strict safety protocols being followed.
“We received a bomb threat via email and have informed the police. Students are being supervised in safe zones while bomb squads conduct searches. All school assessments today stand cancelled,” read one such notice.
Police and the Special Cell launched parallel investigations. While no suspicious object were found during initial sweeps, forensic teams are analyzing the emails to trace their origin.
“We are treating this with utmost seriousness,” said a senior police officer.
