Chandigarh Schools on Alert After Bomb Threat Emails

Schools in Chandigarh faced an urgent security situation after bomb threats were circulated via email on Thursday. In response, authorities swiftly mobilized anti-sabotage teams to ensure safety and prevent any potential threats.

Swift action was taken with bomb disposal squads, dog units, and emergency services like police, ambulances, and the fire brigade, all dispatched to the threatened institutions. This proactive approach highlights the readiness of the local authorities to tackle such emergencies.
