Today’s threats come on the heels of similar hoax emails sent on Monday and Tuesday, bringing the total number of affected institutions to 11 since July 15.

On Tuesday, St. Thomas School (Dwarka) and St. Stephen’s College (Delhi University) received threatening emails. Both campuses were cleared as a precaution, and bomb squads carried out thorough inspections. Nothing suspicious was found.

On Monday, three schools Navy School (Chanakyapuri), CRPF School (Dwarka), and one school in Rohini received bomb threat emails. Similar emergency protocols were followed, and all were declared false alarms after inspections.

In every case, Delhi Police, Dog Squads, and Bomb Detection Teams were deployed immediately. Fire tenders were also sent as part of the standard emergency response. According to officials, all the threats have been found to be hoaxes, but authorities are treating them very seriously.

The Delhi Police is now working with its Cyber Crime Unit to trace the source of the emails and has said legal action will be taken under laws related to public safety and hoax threats.

“Even though these were hoax threats, we are taking every case seriously to ensure the safety of students, teachers, and staff,” a Delhi Fire Services official added.
