New Delhi: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and several major banks, including HDFC and ICICI, received a bomb threat conveyed via email. It alleged the planting of bombs at 11 different locations across Mumbai, accompanied by a demand for the resignation of RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das and Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, Mumbai Police revealed on Tuesday.
The email accused the RBI, along with private sector banks, of executing the “biggest scam in the history of India.” The message specifically implicated RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, top banking officials, and certain ministers in the alleged scam. ABP News claimed it had accessed a screenshot of the mail.
The email outlined the locations where the bombs were purportedly planted, creating an atmosphere of panic. The specified locations included the RBI’s New Central Building in Fort, Mumbai; HDFC House in Churchgate, Mumbai; and ICICI Bank Towers in BKC, Mumbai. Additionally, a warning was issued, indicating that the bombs would detonate at 1:30 PM.
“We demand that both RBI Governor and Finance Minister immediately resign from their posts and release a press statement with full disclosure of the scam. We also demand the government to give them both and all those who are involved the punishment they deserve,” the email read.
Responding promptly to the threat, Mumbai Police confirmed that a total of 11 bomb threats were reported at distinct locations in Mumbai. However, upon thorough investigation, authorities did not discover any explosive devices. “A case has been registered, and the probe is underway,” Mumbai Police stated, as quoted by ANI through a post on X.
