Andhra Pradesh - Rajahmundry

Bomb hoax delays Konark express

Staff Reporter

Rajahmundry: A phone call which warned that a passenger travelling in Bhubaneswar-bound Konark Express was possessing a bomb, turned out to be a hoax.

The Government Railway Police have received the call a short while the train arrived at Rajahmundry station.

Within no time of the train’s arrival, personnel of the GRP and district police thoroughly checked it only to realise that it was the handiwork of a mischief monger.

The train was delayed by about an hour due to the incident.
