Amidst a wave of panic triggered by bomb threat emails sent to nearly 100 schools across Delhi and the NCR, Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena assures citizens of swift action. The Delhi Police, after a meticulous investigation, have successfully traced the origin of these menacing emails.

The ordeal began when schools like DAV School in Model Town received alarming bomb threats via email. Swiftly responding to the situation, Mr. Saxena visited the affected school and provided reassurance to the community.

The complexity of the case became apparent as the emails were cleverly routed through virtual private networks, complicating the tracing process. However, the tenacity of the police force prevailed, leading to the identification of the email’s source through careful analysis of internet protocol addresses.

In a statement, the Delhi Police emphasized the importance of remaining calm in the face of such threats, urging the public to trust in their efforts to maintain safety and security. Despite thorough inspections yielding no evidence of danger, the Special Cell has initiated a detailed investigation into the matter.

Mr. Saxena, adamant about ensuring the safety of schools and children, has called for a comprehensive probe into the incident. While acknowledging the understandable concern of parents, he appeals for cooperation with the authorities.

As schools diligently follow safety protocols and prioritize the well-being of students, principals like Kaamini Bhasin from Delhi Public School Noida underscore the gravity of the situation. With safety as their paramount concern, schools have promptly informed authorities and sent students home.

In the wake of this unsettling event, the resilience of Delhi’s community shines through as they stand united against threats to their safety and well-being.
