Chandigarh on Alert: Bomb Threats Shake Schools and Public Buildings

Police in Chandigarh launched an extensive operation on Monday, responding to bomb threat emails targeting schools and government buildings, officials confirmed. Despite the alarm, no suspicious items were found.

The threats initially reached three private schools, detailing potential explosions during school hours. Quick action saw police teams conducting searches within the institutions alongside precautionary checks across the city.
