Noida: At least 12 schools in Noida received bomb threats on October 12, prompting an emergency response and security checks at the affected locations. The schools named in the initial information include Apeejay School in Sector 16, Step by Step School and Delhi Public School Gautam Buddh Nagar. The threats led to the deployment of specialised teams to examine the premises and assess the situation. The information available establishes that threats were received and emergency personnel were dispatched. It does not confirm the presence of any explosive device.
Schools Named Include Apeejay, Step by Step and DPS
The alert affected around a dozen educational institutions, although a complete list of schools was not provided. Apeejay School, Step by Step School and DPS Gautam Buddh Nagar were among those identified.
Details about how the threats were delivered, when each school received them and whether they shared a common source were not available in the initial account. No confirmed information was provided about evacuations, class cancellations or changes to school schedules. These details remain important for understanding how individual campuses responded.
Emergency Teams Deployed for Security Checks
Bomb disposal squads, dog squads, police personnel and fire department teams were sent to the affected schools. Their deployment formed part of the response to assess the threats and check the locations.
The outcome of those checks was not included in the available information. The threats therefore cannot yet be described as confirmed bomb incidents or declared hoaxes. Further official updates are needed to establish the findings of the security teams, identify the source of the threats and clarify any impact on school operations.
