 Two hospitals in the national capital -- Burari Government Hospital and Sanjay Gandhi Hospital in Mangolpuri -- received bomb threats through email on Sunday, an official said, adding the police promptly carried out searches on the premises of both hospitals.

Police personnel along with bomb disposal teams and sniffer dogs rushed to the hospitals.
