Delhi is on high alert following a bomb threat email that was sent to the city's airport, several schools, and other institutions on Sunday, September 28, 2025. Authorities have launched an investigation to verify the credibility of the threat and have heightened security measures at all affected locations.
The Delhi Police have confirmed the bomb threat emails. The targets included the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport, schools, and various institutions. Earlier in the day, two schools in Delhi, CRPF Public School in Dwarka and a Sarvodaya Vidyalaya near Qutub Minar, received similar emails. These earlier threats were later declared hoaxes by fire officials after thorough searches by police teams, fire personnel, and bomb disposal squads found nothing suspicious.
In response to the threats, police teams and bomb disposal units were promptly deployed to the affected sites to conduct thorough search operations. So far, no suspicious items have been found. Authorities are actively investigating the source and intent of the email to ensure public safety.
This incident follows a series of similar bomb threats targeting schools in Delhi. Just a week prior, several schools received bomb threat emails, causing panic among students, teachers, and security personnel. On Saturday, September 20, 2025, more than 100 schools in Delhi received bomb threats via email, which were also declared hoaxes after thorough checking. The email received on Saturday came from a group calling themselves 'Terrorizers111,' who had previously sent similar emails to schools. The subject of that email stated "Bombs Placed in Your Building - "React or Face the Disaster". In the previous month, over 50 schools in Delhi had also reported receiving bomb threats via email.
The repeated nature of these threats has prompted authorities to investigate whether they are part of a coordinated effort to create widespread panic. The police are analyzing the source of the emails and their potential connections to previous threats.
The recent increase in bomb threats has led to heightened vigilance at airports and educational institutions across Delhi. Security measures have been stepped up to ensure the safety of the public and prevent any potential incidents. Law enforcement agencies are working to identify and apprehend the individuals responsible for sending these threatening emails. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are urging the public to remain calm and report any suspicious activity.
The Delhi Fire Services (DFS) has been actively involved in responding to the bomb threats. They received information about multiple schools, including Delhi Public School (DPS) in Dwarka, Krishna Model Public School, Sarvodaya Vidyalaya, CRPF Public School in Dwarka, and Mata Vidya Devi Public School in Najafgarh. Fire officials have confirmed that the threats to the two schools earlier today were hoaxes, and they are continuing to work with police to ensure the safety of all locations.
