Mohali: Several schools in Mohali were evacuated after receiving fresh bomb threats, triggering heightened security measures across the district.
According to officials, a threatening email was sent to Gyan Jyoti Global School in Phase 2, with references to other schools as well. Following the alert, authorities swiftly evacuated the premises to ensure the safety of students and staff.
The email also reportedly mentioned a threat to blow up Fortis Hospital Mohali, prompting security agencies to step up vigilance in the area.
