Jaipur: Jaipur International Airport and the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) received a bomb threat on Saturday, putting the security agency on high alert.
The threat said that the airport and CMO would be “blown up within one to two hours.” It was sent to the airport’s official email address.
In response, multiple agencies - including the police, CISF, bomb disposal squad, anti-sabotage units, fire brigade, and civil defence teams - swiftly cordoned off both sites and conducted exhaustive searches.
Sniffer dogs and CCTV reviews were deployed across the airport terminal and surrounding areas. However, no explosives or suspicious items were discovered, and authorities later confirmed the threat to be a hoax.

Previous incidents include an evacuation at a private school in Vidhyadhar Nagar and a major search operation at an ESIC hospital in Sodala. Another notable instance involved mini secretariats across Rajasthan.
According to local police, this marks the ninth bomb threat the airport has received in the past two years.
