There is a bomb in the plane! Such threats came before an IndiGo flight took off from Delhi airport to Varanasi around 5 a.m. on Tuesday. After that, all the passengers on the plane were quickly disembarked, and the search operation started. However, until the time of publication of this report, no suspicious object was found inside the plane.
All passengers were removed from the aircraft using emergency exits, according to the Indira Gandhi Airport Authority in Delhi. Everyone is safe. However, it is not yet clear how many passengers were on the plane. The Delhi Fire Department said that around 5:35 a.m., they received a tip-off about a bomb on a Varanasi-bound flight. A Quick Response Team (QRT) of the fire department immediately reached the airport.
On Monday, the Mumbai Police received a call that bombs were placed at the Taj Hotel and Chhatrapati Shivaji Airport in Mumbai. However, nothing was found in the search operation. A few days ago, a white paper with ‘bomb’ written on it was found in the lavatory of an aircraft parked at Delhi airport. Before that, the police received an email saying that bombs were placed in several schools in Delhi.
