Amritsar, Sep 12 (IANS) The Spring Dale School in Amritsar has received a bomb threat on social media, following which the school authorities have lodged a complaint with the police.
The threat came four days after the DAV Public School got a similar threat, which later proved to be a prank made by three students of the school.
A message uploaded on social media on Monday evening read that there would be a blast in Spring Dale School on September 16 .
As the matter was reported to the police, heavy security arrangements have been made in and around the school.
"It came to the notice of the school that a threatening message was in circulation in social media of similar nature as was circulated against another school in the city last week. Taking serious note of the social media message, the school authorities informed the police to ensure the safety and security of the students and staff of the school," read a statement issued by the school.
It added, "The police authorities informed the school management that the situation is under control and safety and security of the school children will be ensured as an FIR has been lodged and the matter is being investigated."
As per the management, the school will function on Tuesday as per the routine.
Due to incessant rains and water logging of fields owing to overflow of nearby natural drains during September-October 2021 in Delhi, crops of farmers have been severely damaged, the Delhi government said in a release, adding that Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had taken cognisance of the matter and assessed that a relief package for crop damage was necessary to be provided.
The SKM also reiterated that the name, banner or platform of the Samyukt Kisan Morcha will not be used by any political party or candidate in the run-up to the Assembly polls in Punjab, scheduled on February 20.
Appearing for the Punjab government, Senior Advocate P. Chidambaram argued that Majithia has gone into hiding after the rejection of his bail plea in the Punjab and Haryana High Court, and now he is appearing through counsel.
Interestingly, the move comes a week after neighbouring Madhya Pradesh permitted liquor sales at all its airports, select supermarkets in four major cities and also allowed issuing home bar licences to those earning Rs 1 crore or more annually.
The incident took place on Wednesday and the accused are said to be illicit liquor sellers in the area. It has been alleged that the woman was also gang-raped. A video of the incident showed the woman being attacked.
Both Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi and state Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu have urged Rahul Gandhi to announce a CM face well ahead of the polls, instead of going with the collective leadership.
