Early Morning Alarms Across Delhi

Shortly after dawn, emergency services in New Delhi were alerted to alarming emails sent to at least nine schools across the city and to the Indian Parliament. The messages, received between approximately 8:30 am and 9:00 am, contained disturbing language and warnings of explosions later in the day.

School administrators acting on caution immediately evacuated students, teachers, and staff from classrooms, playgrounds, and administrative offices in compliance with established safety protocols. Parents were informed, and large crowds gathered outside school perimeters as security teams went into action.

What the Threat Emails Contained

The threatening messages carried provocative slogans, including the repeated phrase “Delhi will become Khalistan,” along with references to a blast scheduled for about 1:11 pm on the same day. Some versions of the email were signed with names like “Khalistan National Army” and referenced phrases tied to historical figures and political sentiments.

Alarmingly, one of the emails also suggested a possible explosion in the Parliament building on February 13, further intensifying the security concern among officials and the public.

Schools Evacuated as Precaution

The schools impacted by these bomb threat emails to Parliament and schools included several prominent educational institutions spread across the city. Among them were Loreto Convent School in Delhi Cantonment, Cambridge School campuses in Srinivaspuri and New Friends Colony, Venkateshwar Global School in Rohini, The Indian School in Sadiq Nagar, CM Shri School in Rohini, DTEA School in INA, Bal Bharati School in Rohini, and Manav Sthali School in New Rajinder Nagar.

Security teams — including bomb detection units, fire services, and police personnel — were immediately deployed to conduct thorough sweeps of classrooms, corridors, washrooms, and outdoor areas. No suspicious devices were found in initial checks, but safety checks continued for several hours as a precautionary measure.

Authorities stressed that evacuations and complete safety clearances are standard responses in situations involving potential threats, even if they later prove to be hoaxes. Officials reiterated that the safety of students and staff remained their top priority.

Parliament Put on High Alert

In addition to schools, the Indian Parliament was also placed under heightened security following similar email warnings. The messages warned of a possible blast targeting the seat of India’s legislature, prompting lawmakers and staff to remain vigilant and security personnel to conduct routine sweeps of the premises.

While there were no credible findings of actual explosive devices within Parliament grounds, the alert underscored the seriousness with which the threats were treated by law enforcement agencies.

Investigations Underway

Delhi Police and specialised teams quickly launched investigations to determine the source, intent, and legitimacy of the bomb threat emails to Parliament and multiple schools. Cybercrime units are working to trace the emails’ origins, analysing digital fingerprints such as IP addresses and metadata that could lead to those responsible.

Authorities are also investigating whether the emails were sent from within India or routed through international internet servers or anonymising services, a tactic seen in past hoax threat campaigns. Previous bomb hoax incidents in Indian cities have often turned out to be false alarms after thorough inspections revealed no explosives.

Security Protocols Remain Heightened

As searches continue across affected school campuses and around Parliament, security measures remain elevated across Delhi. Police have called for vigilance and urged the public to remain calm while verified updates are provided, noting that misinformation on social media can cause unnecessary panic.

Officials have assured parents, educators, and lawmakers that all steps are being taken to ensure public safety and to identify the perpetrators of the threatening emails.

Broader Context and Public Reaction

The incident has raised fresh concerns about the use of digital communication channels to create fear and disrupt everyday life. Targeted threats against schools and governmental institutions test both emergency response systems and public resilience. Many parents and residents expressed relief once security teams confirmed no devices were found, but some called for improved safeguards against hoax threats in the future.

Looking Ahead

As the investigation into the bomb threat emails to Parliament and multiple schools continues, authorities have pledged to pursue every lead and bring those responsible to justice. Strengthened coordination between cybercrime units, intelligence agencies, and law enforcement will be crucial in countering such threats and preventing future disruptions.

In the meantime, precautionary security protocols remain in place across sensitive locations in the national capital, with officials assuring that safety and vigilance will continue to guide their actions.
