Threat to bomb 10 Indigo flights! Bomb Threat Assessment Team (BTAC) deployed at all airports

Once again on Tuesday (22 October) a fake call to blow up planes created panic. Police and intelligence agencies swung into action after 10 IndiGo flights received threats to be bombed. According to sources, out of the 10 IndiGo flights that have received threats, 7 are international flights. 
According to sources, in view of the continuous threats being received by the airlines, Bomb Threat Assessment Team (BTAC) has been deployed at all the airports. The BTAC team will take immediate action when a bomb threat call is received. It has been told that 90% of the threat calls received so far are from abroad. Only 10% are local threat calls coming from the country. At the same time, MHA cyber wing, security agency and local police have also been alerted to investigate foreign threat calls. The VPN (Virtual Private Network) and IP addresses of calls and mails coming from abroad are being scrutinized. Officials of Home Ministry, Civil Aviation Ministry, CISF, BCAS and IB have held several meetings so far on the threat call. The airport administration and other agencies have also been instructed to remain on alert mode.
