CHANDIGARH, MAY 21 — A significant security alert was triggered across the Union Territory on May 21 after several prominent educational institutions received anonymous threat emails, prompting immediate mobilization of law enforcement agencies.
Local police and specialized bomb detection teams rushed to multiple campuses, including St. Stephen’s School in Sector 45, Delhi Public School in Sector 40, and Chitkara International School in Sector 25, to initiate emergency safety protocols and carry out thorough search operations. Following extensive sweeps of the premises, security officials declared the buildings entirely safe and permitted school administrations to proceed with their routine schedules.
Senior administrative officials asserted that the emails followed a pattern highly similar to past hoax messages received by various public offices, judicial complexes, and municipal institutions in the region. Investigators maintained that the situation remains fully under control and appealed to the public to stay calm and refrain from spreading unverified rumors.
While security agencies continue to trace the digital signatures and source origins of the correspondence, local authorities declared that vigilance has been heightened across all major public installations to ensure absolute public safety.
