Another bomb threat: Air India Express flight makes emergency landing in Jaipur
Jaipur: An Air India Express flight from Dubai to Jaipur made an emergency landing at Jaipur airport early Saturday morning due to a bomb threat.
According to Kashmir Media Service, this incident is part of a troubling trend, as over 20 flights have received bomb threats this week alone, prompting diversions and rescheduling while putting Indian forces on high alert.
Upon notification of the threat, authorities declared an emergency at the Jaipur airport. The flight, carrying 189 passengers, landed safely, and all individuals aboard were unharmed. Following the landing, the aircraft was thoroughly inspected, but officials confirmed that nothing suspicious was found, deeming the threat a hoax.
This event marks the latest in a series of bomb threats targeting both domestic and international flights, with most threats reportedly originating from social media. Though all such threats in recent days have turned out to be false alarms yet the frequency of these incidents continues to raise concerns among travelers and authorities alike.
