Hoax bomb call causes panic in Delhi | There was panic in
Delhi following anonymous call that bombs were placed at three important buildings--Vikas
Minar, NDMC building and Safdarjang Hospital. Police received the anonymous call
at 9.30 in the morning. Teams of Delhi police, Bomb Squads along with sniffer
dogs, and Fire brigades reached the suspected spots. At Safdarjang Hospital, patients
had to be immediately evacuated from the building. There was absolute chaos in
and outside the hospital, as is heavy traffic outside the hospital, and especially
it was rush-hour for office-goers. Initially, patients and their attendants could
