A social media post attributed to an organization calling itself Tehreek-ul-Mujahideen Hindustan has claimed responsibility for a blast threat directed at Vasundhara police station in Ghaziabad, according to reports Wednesday.
The claim was posted on an X account under the handle 'Gazi 2', in which the purported organization stated it was behind the threat to blow up the police facility. The post emerged amid heightened security concerns in the district.
Authorities have launched an investigation into the authenticity of the claim and the identity of those behind the social media account. Police officials said they are taking the threat seriously and have increased security measures at the station and other sensitive installations in the area.
