Multiple schools in the national capital received bomb threats on Saturday (September 20, 2025) morning, triggering panic and a swift response from police and bomb disposal squads, officials said.
The schools that reported receiving the threats include Delhi Public School (DPS) in Dwarka, Krishna Model Public School and Sarvodaya Vidyalaya, they said.
Bomb disposal squads and police teams were rushed to the campuses. Students and staff members were evacuated as a precautionary measure, officials said.
“We are thoroughly checking the campuses. Nothing suspicious has been found yet,” a senior police officer said, adding that search operations were continuing at the affected schools.
In south Delhi’s Sarvodyaya Vidyalaya, after rigorous checking by the police and DFS, the bomb threat was declared a hoax. Other schools in the Capital are being thoroughly checked.
