Bomb Scare at Airport Again: A fresh bomb scare has reportedly triggered a security alert at an airport after sanitation workers discovered a handwritten note inside a women’s washroom. The note allegedly claimed that a bomb had been placed at Gate 30, prompting airport police, CISF personnel and a bomb disposal squad to launch a search operation.
Bomb Threat Note Found in Women’s Washroom
A fresh bomb scare has reportedly raised security concerns at an airport after a suspicious handwritten note was discovered inside a women’s washroom on Friday morning.
According to the information provided, sanitation workers found the note during their routine cleaning duties. The message reportedly read, “A bomb has been placed at Gate No. 30.”
The discovery immediately raised an alarm, with airport authorities and security personnel alerted about the potential threat. The incident has reportedly caused concern among airport staff and passengers.
Police and CISF Launch Security Operation
Following the discovery of the threatening note, the airport police, Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel and a bomb disposal squad were reportedly informed.
Security teams launched a search operation covering Gate 30 and other areas of the airport premises. The operation was aimed at identifying any suspicious objects and ensuring the safety of passengers, airport employees and other people present at the facility.
According to the information available, no suspicious object had been found during the initial searches. However, the final outcome of the security operation and any official confirmation regarding the threat were not available at the time of writing.
Second Bomb Scare Reportedly Raises Concerns
The latest incident has reportedly renewed concerns about airport security, as a similar scare was said to have occurred earlier this month.
Bomb threats at airports are treated seriously because even an unverified message can require extensive security checks and disrupt normal operations. Security agencies generally assess the credibility of such threats and take precautionary measures in accordance with established procedures.
A previous incident at Kolkata airport on September 4, 2026, involved a bomb-warning note discovered inside the washroom of a Gorakhpur-bound aircraft. Passengers were deboarded while CISF personnel and bomb disposal teams searched the plane. Officials subsequently reported that nothing suspicious had been found.

Investigation and Official Confirmation Awaited
The circumstances surrounding the latest note, including who placed it in the washroom and whether it was intended as a genuine threat or a hoax, remain unclear.
An official confirmation regarding the investigation, the final security clearance and any action against the person responsible was not available in the information provided for this report.
Airport authorities and law enforcement agencies are expected to examine such incidents carefully to establish the facts and maintain passenger safety.
Important: This report is based on preliminary information. The airport’s identity, the exact date of the incident and the final findings of the search operation should be verified through official sources before publication.
