A bomb disposal squad and sniffer dogs were pressed into service in Powai in north-west Mumbai after police received reports that explosives had been planted in a bus in that area.
The bus, at the time of filing this report, had been taken to a secluded area. "There is yet no confirmation of the presence of explosives on the bus," a senior police officer said.
The incident follows Thursday's bomb blast in a train in Mulund that left 12 persons dead and over 65 injured.
