A bomb threat reported at two Delhi schools on Friday triggered responses from the Delhi Police and fire services, with teams sent to Venkateshwar Public School in Rohini and Salwan Public School in Mayur Vihar for investigation.
According to a report by Jagran – New Delhi, information related to the threats was received by the fire department at 9.37 am and 9.57 am. Police and fire teams subsequently reached the two locations and began examining the matter.
The report identified the two campuses as Venkateshwar Public School in Rohini and Salwan Public School in Mayur Vihar. It did not specify whether the threats were delivered through email, telephone calls, messages or another channel. The identity and location of the person who issued the threats had also not been established at the time of publication.
The response involves both the Delhi Police and fire services, indicating that the authorities were treating the information as a matter requiring an on-site assessment. The available report does not state whether any suspicious object was found, whether the campuses were evacuated, or whether classes and other school operations were suspended.
The incident places renewed attention on the operational demands faced by schools and emergency agencies when threats are received. A threat, even before its credibility is determined, requires authorities to establish the facts, secure the location where necessary and identify the source of the communication. In this case, the two schools are in separate parts of Delhi, with one located in Rohini and the other in Mayur Vihar.
The central questions in the investigation are who issued the threats and from where they were made. The report said Delhi Police personnel were examining these aspects. No claim of an actual explosion or discovery of explosives was reported in the available information.
Further details about the police assessment, the status of the school campuses and any action against the person responsible were not available in the report at the time of publication. The investigation by Delhi Police and the fire services is continuing.
