7 Indian flights received bomb threats on Tuesday, causing panic and forcing two planes to make emergency landings. A Delhi-Chicago Air India flight was diverted to Canada, while an Air India Express flight was grounded in Ayodhya for checks. Threats were issued via social media and targeted multiple airlines, including IndiGo, SpiceJet, and Akasa Air. Authorities later confirmed all threats were hoaxes. Security agencies, working with airlines and police, conducted safety checks, and no explosives were found. Investigations are ongoing to trace the sources of the false alarms.
