EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE
MUMBAI, July 3: The Guwahati Express was delayed by over five hours today when a caller informed the railway control about a bomb in the train.The train left at 12 noon, as per schedule, from Dadar Terminus. However, the Karjat railway control soon got the anonymous bomb hoax call and the train was thoroughly checked at Igatpuri for five hours. But no bomb was found.A senior railway official said no chances were being taken in the wake of the threat posed by Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence, even if it meant there would be a delay in the train's schedule.
