Bomb threats have been made against more than 100 schools in Delhi NCR. The Delhi Public School (DPS) in Dwarka, Delhi, Mother Mary School in Mayur Vihar, East Delhi, Sanskriti School, and Amity School in Pushp Vihar have all received threats via email.
An email was received threatening to bomb over 100 schools in the NCR, including the capital Delhi and Noida. Many of these schools are well-known, like DPS, Mother Mary, and Amity. It is reported that the email arrived in the morning. The schools promptly notified the police. Police, the bomb squad, the dog squad, and the fire department all arrived to the scene.
Police immediately cleared all school websites and set up a search operation. At the same moment, the school administration sent a message warning parents of the situation and requesting that they take their children home. Following that, the parents panicked. They began arriving at the school to pick up the children.

Delhi Public School (DPS) in Dwarka, Mother Mary School, Mayur Vihar in East Delhi, Sanskriti School, and Amity School in Pushp Vihar have also received the threat.

Apart from Delhi, the Delhi Public School in Noida has also received a threatening email. In addition to these schools, numerous others in Delhi NCR have been threatened.
Threats were delivered to schools via a single email
The police claim that numerous Delhi schools have received bomb threats. According to the preliminary inquiry, the email appears to have been sent out several times since yesterday. It appears to follow the same trend, too. This email does not have a dateline. There have been several recipients of the same email.
DCP South West Rohit Meena stated, ‘We received information that the same email was sent to many schools at approximately 4:15 a.m. We took action and chose to close the schools. The students were sent home. The investigation is ongoing in all schools, and our technology section is looking into the email; it appears to be a mass email. I’d like to encourage that students and parents remain calm; there is no need to panic. We are researching each school and communicating with the school administration.
