Bomb threat email disrupts Jalandhar schools before PM Modi's visit
A person named Billy Hall sent an email to a school and a religious site in Jalandhar, warning about bomb blasts.
This happened just before Prime Minister Narendra Modi was supposed to visit the area.
The police and security teams quickly checked the places but didn't find any bombs.
The emails were called hoaxes and were meant to create panic.
The BJP said these threats show that the state government and police are not doing their jobs well.
The schools and the area are now being guarded more carefully to keep everyone safe.
The email mentioned PM Modi's visit to Dera Sachkhand Ballan for a special event celebrating Guru Ravidas's birthday.
A bomb threat email was sent to Cambridge School in Jalandhar and Dera Sachkhand Ballan, signed by 'Billy Hall'.
The email warned of bomb blasts in five schools and Dera Ballan during PM Modi's visit to Dera Sachkhand Ballan.
The threat was received a day before PM Modi's visit on the occasion of Guru Ravidas Jayanti.
Police and security agencies conducted a search operation but found no suspicious objects.
