A day after several private schools in Delhi and Noida received hoax bomb threat, a few schools reported a drop in attendance.
On Wednesday morning, students were evacuated from 131 schools in Delhi and seven in Noida even as fire tenders, bomb disposal squads and sniffer dogs were rushed to the premises to search for explosives. No suspicious object was found in the searches and the emails were found to be a hoax.
A senior police officer said the intention behind the emails was to create mass panic and disturb public order.
