Earlier today, several schools and the Fortis hospital in Mohali, where Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has been admitted, received bomb threats.
Following this, security has been heightened, and police personnel have been deployed around the hospital premises after the bomb threat was received via email.
Earlier, CM Bhagwant Mann was admitted to Fortis Hospital in Mohali on Sunday. According to hospital authorities, he underwent a comprehensive clinical assessment along with standard diagnostic investigations. In a statement issued earlier, the hospital said all his vital parameters were stable and within normal limits. He was experiencing exhaustion and was admitted for observation and supportive care. "His condition is stable, and he remains under the supervision of a multidisciplinary medical team," the hospital said.
Despite his admission, Mann addressed a rally in Moga on Monday as part of the state government's 'Yudh Nasheyan Virudh' campaign. During the event, he took an oath to eradicate drug use in Punjab and outlined the next phase of the anti-drug initiative. "Under the 'War Against Drugs 2.0', programs will be organised in schools in the coming days. Students and their parents will be made aware of drugs. At the same time, future generations will also be saved from drugs," Mann said.
