Bomb threat on flight from Mumbai to New York, emergency landing in Delhi

For quite some time now, there have been bomb threats in schools, colleges, airports and flights. Sometimes we receive threatening letters through email. Such threats are being received continuously. Investigation is being done to find out the real reason as to who is giving and why. But no concrete reason is emerging. Ultimately the threats turned out to be rumours. But if you are in a flight and you come to know that there is a bomb in the flight, then whose life will be saved? The same thing happened in the Air India flight going from Mumbai to New York.

Bomb in Air India flight?

There was panic after receiving a bomb threat in an Air India flight going from Mumbai to New York. The aircraft was immediately flown to Delhi and landed at IGI Airport in Delhi. The plane is also currently standing at Delhi airport. The aircraft is being inspected as per safety protocols keeping in mind the safety of passengers and crew members. A similar incident also came to light on August 22, when a bomb threat was received on another Air India flight. The flight reached Thiruvananthapuram from Mumbai. After this a complete emergency was declared at the airport.
