8 schools get bomb threat; day after alert at 30 others

A day earlier, 30 schools received similar alerts, police said.

The schools—most of which were shut on Saturday—received the email at around 6 a.m., according to the police.

The affected schools on Saturday included Delhi Public School in RK Puram, Ryan International School in Vasant Kunj, Gyan Bharti School in Saket, and Amity International Schools in Delhi and Noida.

The Delhi Police reported that multi-agency searches involving Delhi Police, the Delhi Fire Services, bomb squads, and dog squads were again conducted on Saturday, but no suspicious items were found, and the threats were once again deemed a hoax.
