Schools in Agra, Meerut, and Kanpur Targeted in Bomb Threats
Some schools in Agra, Meerut, and Kanpur received scary emails saying there might be bombs.
The police and special teams checked the schools very carefully, but they didn't find anything dangerous.
The emails seem to have come from a place called Kolkata.
The police are trying to find out who sent the emails.
Last year, similar threats were sent to schools, but they turned out to be fake.
So, although the schools were searched as a precaution, everything is now safe and normal activities have resumed.
Bomb threats via email targeted private schools in Agra, Meerut, and Kanpur.
Schools in Agra, Meerut, and Kanpur were searched by bomb disposal and dog squads; nothing suspicious was found.
Investigations are underway to trace the origin of the emails, which preliminarily appear to have originated from Kolkata.

Similar threats were received by multiple schools over a year ago, which were later determined to be hoaxes.
