Punjab CM Mann gets bomb threat; email also sent to schools
On Tuesday morning, Fortis Hospital in Mohali—where Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann is being treated for exhaustion—and several private schools received bomb threat emails.
The messages, claiming to be from the Khalistan National Army, warned of explosions around 11am and specifically mentioned the CM.
Emails traced back to Bangladesh
Police say the emails came from Bangladesh and other countries, aiming to stir up unrest in Punjab.
Bomb squads and sniffer dogs checked all the locations but found nothing dangerous.
Essential hospital services kept running smoothly, though some non-urgent work was paused just to be safe.
Security around the hospital was also stepped up, especially since there have been similar hoaxes in nearby cities recently.
The investigation into who sent these threats is still ongoing.
