Soon after Independence Day in August, a similar threat was received at the Delhi HC. SWAT teams, fire tenders and bomb squads were rushed to the site. Nothing was found. A couple of months ago, another hoax call was received at the New Delhi Railway Station. The caller claimed a bomb had been placed in a train entering the city, reports India.com.
