Digital Desk: Approximately 60 schools in Bengaluru received an email early Friday morning alleging of "explosive devices on the school grounds."
Bengaluru Police Commissioner B Dayananda stated while talking to News18 that the email appears to be a scam and that police officers have scoured the city to inspect and safeguard every school mentioned.
"In 2022, 15 schools received a similar hoax email claiming that explosives were planted on school grounds. Our staff are searching thoroughly, but it appears to be a case of mischief," the Bengaluru Police Commissioner reportedly stated.
"There is no reason to panic. This appears to be a hoax, and we will ensure Bengaluru's safety," said the police commissioner.
