Bomb Threat Emails Prompt Searches at Multiple Chandigarh Schools, No Explosives FoundPreviousNext

On Tuesday morning, multiple schools in Chandigarh received bomb threat emails, prompting police and security agencies to conduct thorough searches. Vivek High School and three others—Carmel Convent, St John's High School, and Sacred Heart Senior Secondary School—were among those targeted. Authorities evacuated students and staff as a precaution, but no explosives or suspicious objects were found. Police are investigating the source of the threats, which have been linked to a group supporting Khalistan ideology, and have increased security ahead of Independence Day celebrations.
