Delhi police and fire department were at the spot.

On Monday, over 30 schools across Delhi received similar threats, which later turned out to be hoaxes.

Around 50 schools in the national capital received bomb threats again on Wednesday through e-mail, which were later declared 'hoax'. DAV Public School, Faith Academy, Doon Public School, Sarvodhaya Vidyalaya, Rahul Model School, Maxfort School in Dwarka, SKV in Malviya Nagar, and the Andhra School in Prasad Nagar were among the institutions that received the bomb threat.

In the threat mail, which was sent to schools on Tuesday night, the group demanded 2,000 Dollars in cryptocurrency.

"We are the Terrorizers 111 group. We have planted explosives inside your building, and others across the city. Devices include high-yield C4 bombs and timed charges placed in classrooms, auditoriums, staff rooms, and school buses, designed to cause maximum casualties. We have breached your IT systems, extracted student and staff data, and compromised all security cameras," PTI quoted the mail.

The mail also demanded the transfer of money to an Ethereum address, adding that the bombs would be detonated within 48 hours otherwise.
