<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The message, containing a chilling one-line warning, 'We will blast your stadium', was sent under the name 'Pakistan JK'.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A senior police official confirmed to IANS that the threat is being taken seriously, particularly due to the upcoming high-profile <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/ipl-2025-mumbai-indians-gujarat-titans-in-a-wet-spot-23536499" rel="none"><strong>Gujarat Titans</strong></a> vs Lucknow Super Giants fixture scheduled for May 14 at the same venue.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In immediate response, a bomb disposal unit along with a team of senior security officials conducted a comprehensive search of the stadium premises.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Following the successful completion of 'Operation Sindoor', the state government has raised the security alert level in coordination with central intelligence agencies.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Increased deployment of police and paramilitary forces has been initiated in sensitive areas. Critical public spaces such as railway stations, airports, religious sites, and other sports venues are now subject to routine patrolling and rigorous security checks.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Additionally, intelligence units have been instructed to closely monitor online communications and social media platforms for any indication of suspicious activity. Coordination among local police, the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS), and bomb detection squads has been reinforced, and rapid response teams remain on standby to address any emergency.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The government has directed district administrations to conduct mock drills to test emergency preparedness and operational readiness.
