Bomb threat calls targeting nine schools across Delhi triggered emergency responses on Monday, the latest in a spate of similar incidents that have repeatedly disrupted educational institutions in major Indian cities.

Prominent schools in several districts received the threats between 8:30 am and 9:00 am. Delhi Police was alerted and fire teams and bomb disposal squads were immediately deployed.

Police said students and staff were promptly evacuated from the premises. Searches are currently underway.

This is a developing story. It will be updated.
