Bomb threats extremely serious, culprits to be placed on no-fly list: Aviation Minister

The Union Civil Aviation Minister has emphasized the government’s commitment to public safety after nearly 100 bomb threats against flights in just seven days. Regulations are being amended to put individuals responsible for such threats on no-fly lists. Multiple airlines received threats, causing inconvenience to passengers and leading to detailed checks. The Bureau of Civil Aviation Security is working on implementing strict norms to prevent hoax bomb threats in the future. Security agencies are on high alert due to the recent surge in threats, most of which turned out to be hoaxes.
