Delhi Public School in RK Puram receives bomb threat; second such incident in the area in a year

Delhi Police registered a case and begun an investigation after the Delhi Public School in R K Puram in the national capital received a call warning of a bomb in the premises. The school was immediately vacated and a search operation was launched, they said.

In September last year, the Lal Bahadur Shastri School in RK Puram received an email about a bomb on the premises that later turned out to be a hoax.

In May last year, the Delhi Public School, Mathura Road had received a bomb threat on email. Police declared the email threat to be a hoax after finding nothing suspicious following searches. Later it was found that the e-mail was sent from the email id of a student, police said.


The Indian School in Sadiq Nagar received two bomb threats, the last on April 12, 2023 via email. The first one was over phone in November 2022. Both turned out to be hoaxes.
