Guwahati: The Mumbai Mayor Ritu Rajesh Tawde received a bomb threat email, today morning targeting her office, Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan and Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh’s upcoming concert in the city.

The email threatened to target Dosanjh’s India Tour event, scheduled to take place at Mahalaxmi Racecourse on  27th November . It also warned of attacks on three to four schools in Mumbai.

Mumbai Police conducted checks at the locations mentioned in the threat in accordance with standard operating procedures but found nothing suspicious.
