After an inquiry, the call was found to be bogus, Delhi Police said.

However, necessary safety protocols were followed, keeping in view the security of passengers.

Last month, the IGI airport was put on high alert after a bomb threat call was received for a Darbhanga to Delhi flight.

The passengers were swiftly deplaned after the flight landed in Delhi. (ANI)
