New Delhi, Feb 27 (IANS) Security personnel at the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) airport went into a tizzy on Tuesday after a bomb threat call was received at the facility, police said.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (IGI airport) Usha Rangnani said that around 5.15 a.m., a bomb threat call was received by IGI Airport in relation to flight from Delhi to Kolkata which was scheduled to depart from IGI Airport.
