Punjab and Haryana High Court.
Chandigarh: The Punjab and Haryana High Court on Thursday received a bomb threat through an e-mail. The threat claimed that an IED (improvised explosive device) was placed in the court premises. After this news, the Chandigarh police immediately took action and started searching the court premises. SDPO (Central) Udaypal Singh of Chandigarh Police said, ‘The Registrar Office of the High Court received an e-mail, which was said to have a bomb. As soon as the information was received, the police started a thorough search of the entire campus. In terms of security, most parts of the court have been evacuated and the entry of common people has been temporarily stopped. So far no suspicious item has been found in the search, but the police is investigating with full vigilance.
Similar threats were given in Haryana on Wednesday
Please tell that on Wednesday, the office of the deputy commissioner in Ambala, Haryana was also threatened with similar bombs.

For example, in May 2025, many schools and hospitals in Delhi also received threats through e-mail, but no threat was found in the investigation. However, at that time also the police conducted a precautionary search operation.
