Army Public School in Dhaula Kuan, Delhi, received a bomb threat via email, leading to an investigation by authorities. Delhi Fire Services (DFS) and police teams have been deployed at the school as precautionary measures continue. Details are awaited as the situation unfolds.
Earlier, three other schools in Delhi – CRPF Public School in Rohini, St. Thomas School in Dwarka, and DAV Centenary Public School in Paschim Enclave – also faced bomb threat emails, resulting in evacuations and searches by multiple agencies. Police have confirmed those threats as hoaxes.
Authorities have deployed bomb disposal squads, dog squads, and local police personnel to the schools following the reported threats. Students and staff were evacuated, and thorough searches were conducted as a precaution. No suspicious items were found during initial checks, but detailed campus sanitisation is ongoing.
Investigations into the Army Public School threat are ongoing, with cyber teams examining the emails to determine their source and authenticity. Police are also checking for similar threats sent to other institutions. The recent threats are part of a concerning trend in Delhi-NCR, with at least four bomb threat emails targeting schools in the region in the last two weeks.
Authorities are actively working to trace the origin of the email concerning the Army Public School incident to ensure the safety of students and staff. Parents and the public are advised to remain calm as security checks and sanitisation procedures continue.
