On the other hand, Air India Express flight coming from Dubai to Jaipur was made to land in an emergency situation at Jaipur airport late on Friday night after receiving a bomb threat. However, after investigation, this threat turned out to be a "rumour". 

 The Civil Aviation Ministry is planning to impose stringent rules to prevent incidents of bomb threats on flights and put the culprits on a 'no-fly' list. The DGCA is considering amending rules to ensure strict action against incidents of bomb threats by airlines. Most of the threats have turned out to be false. In this regard, the ministry is considering amending existing rules, including those related to the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS), to ensure stringent punishment for the culprits. The official said a proposal to put persons making false bomb threats on airlines' 'no-fly' list is under consideration. He also said legal opinion is being collected regarding making changes in the rules. The ministry is also examining the provisions being adopted in foreign countries to deal with fake bomb threats.
