On Monday morning, chaos erupted in Delhi when two prominent schools, DPS RK Puram and GD Goenka School in Paschim Vihar, received bomb threats via email. The incident occurred during peak school hours, as buses arrived, parents dropped off their children, and staff prepared for the morning assembly. The alarming email sent shockwaves through the school community, prompting immediate action by authorities.
As soon as the threats were received around 7 AM, the school managements alerted the police. In a swift response, law enforcement and bomb disposal squads rushed to both campuses to ensure the safety of students and staff. The schools were promptly evacuated, and children were sent back home safely. The efficiency and coordination of the school authorities and police helped avert panic during the critical early hours.
The bomb squads are conducting thorough searches of the school premises to rule out any potential danger. Police officials have also launched an investigation into the origin of the threatening emails. Authorities are analyzing electronic footprints to identify the perpetrators behind this alarming act. Initial reports suggest that the email’s content aimed to create fear and disrupt normal school functioning.
Parents and guardians expressed a mix of relief and concern. While they appreciated the prompt action taken by the schools and authorities, the incident has raised questions about the safety measures and preparedness of educational institutions in handling such threats. School managements across Delhi may now consider revising security protocols to prevent similar incidents in the future.
This unsettling event underscores the importance of vigilance in public spaces and highlights the need for enhanced cybersecurity to track and prevent such threats. Police and school authorities have assured the community that all necessary steps are being taken to ensure the safety and well-being of students and staff
