The Hoax Threats and Their Impact

While school principals speculate that these bomb threats may be spam emails sent by dissatisfied members of parents’ groups, the consequences have been far-reaching. Over the past few months, such hoax threats have become increasingly common, disrupting school hours and causing extreme anxiety among parents and students.

The Delhi Police swiftly responded to the situation, placing security cordons around the affected school campuses. Search operations are underway to ensure the safety of students and staff. All students have been evacuated and are being taken home as a precautionary measure².

As authorities investigate the source of these threats, parents, teachers, and students remain on edge, hoping for a swift resolution to this unsettling situation.
