One Vikram Singh called on the school's land-line on Tuesday and claimed that he had planted a "time-bomb" inside the school, the police official said. Singh then made another threat call at the security post at the school's gate after some time, he said.

The threat turned out to be a hoax. He was nabbed from an undisclosed location in Gujarat and further investigation was underway, the official added.
