An anonymous phone call threatening that a bomb has been placed in a Kolkata-bound Indigo Airlines fllight with 130 people, including six crew, on board on Wednesday sent security agencies into a tizzy at the Delhi airport. The call was made to Indigo's call centre at around 4 pm that a bomb has been placed in the Delhi-Kolkata flight 6E 203, which was to take off at around 4:30 pm, an airport official said. The flight was actually to take off at 3:30 pm but was rescheduled because the airport was closed for about two hours as part of a security drill ahead of Independence Day celebrations. Security personnel have cordoned off the plane and checks are on. There were 124 passengers and six crew on board.
