New Delhi, January 8: Several schools in Delhi received bomb threat emails on Wednesday, police said. According to officials, the list includes Delhi Public School in Vasant Vihar and RK Puram, Blue Bells, and Tagore International. The emails claimed that a large amount of explosives had been planted on the school premises.

Authorities are investigating the threats, which are similar to previous hoax bomb threats sent to schools in the city. The e-mail warned the school of "massive and highly dangerous explosives" on its premises. "Your lack of strict bag checks for students entering the school has provided us with the perfect opportunity to carry out our plan," the e-mail, shared by police sources, read. Delhi School Bomb Threat: Lady Shree Ram College, Tagore International School Receive Bomb Threat E-Mails, Police Rush Teams.

You will remain completely unaware of the devastating explosives that have already been planted in multiple key locations on your premises," mentions the email. Delhi School Bomb Threat: Several Schools Receive Bomb Threats Again, Students Evacuated As Police Launch Probe.
