A bomb threat caused panic aboard a flight from Ahmedabad to Patna on Wednesday, June 4, 2025. The alert came shortly before the plane was scheduled to land at Patna Airport, prompting swift action from airport authorities and security personnel.
The IndiGo flight, carrying 195 passengers, was safely landed around 1 PM and immediately moved to an isolation bay at Patna Airport. A bomb squad conducted a detailed search of the aircraft for about an hour. No suspicious items were found on board.
The incident follows a similar bomb threat hoax at Jammu Railway Station two days ago. Even that threat also turned out to be false.
How Was The Bomb Threat Received?
The threat was sent via WhatsApp to IndiGo station manager Shalini. A message sent to Air Traffic Control (ATC) indicated that the word “bomb” was written on a napkin tissue. CISF was quickly informed, and authorities including airport security, local administration, and police convened to assess the situation.
The search was conducted according to standard operating procedures as per the Airport Authority of India (AAI).
Similar Incidents In Past
On Sunday evening, an anonymous caller claimed a bomb had been planted at the busy Jammu Railway Station, triggering a massive security response. Police and railway officials carried out an extensive search using sniffer dogs and metal detectors, but nothing suspicious was found.
