BOMB THREAT AT TAMILNADU HOUSE IN DELHI!! Diplomatic Enclave in Jitters
A bomb threat at Tamil Nadu House in Delhi’s Chanakyapuri area sparked panic today.
A bomb threat at Tamil Nadu House in Delhi’s Chanakyapuri area sparked panic today, leading to an immediate evacuation of the state guest house. Reported around midday, the threat prompted a swift response from Delhi Police, bomb detection teams, and fire services, who descended on the diplomatic enclave to secure the premises.
Tamil Nadu House serves as an official residence and liaison office for Tamil Nadu government representatives in the capital. Social media visuals showed police patrolling on bikes, a fire brigade vehicle outside, and a crowd near the site, highlighting the urgency. The Delhi Fire Services reported no suspicious items found in initial checks, though searches continued into the afternoon.
Details about the threat’s origin—whether an email, call, or other means—remain undisclosed. Authorities have launched an investigation to trace its source, likely employing cyber forensics if it aligns with recent hoax patterns. This incident follows a wave of false alarms in India, including hoax threats to schools in Tamil Nadu’s Erode district on January 21, 2025, and a bomb scare at Tirunelveli railway station before Republic Day. Such events have strained security resources nationwide.
No official statement has clarified the threat’s credibility. The high-profile location and timing amplify concerns, though officials are proceeding cautiously. The public has been urged to avoid the area as security teams complete their sweep.
