An attempt to hoist the Kalyana Karnataka statehood flag by members of the Kalyana Karnataka Pratyeka Rajya Jagruti Samiti seeking to boycott Rajyotsava celebrations was foiled by police in Kalaburagi on Monday.
Members of the Kalyana Karnataka Pratyeka Rajya Jagruti Samiti, who tried to break the police cordon at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Chowk, were stopped by the police personnel and prevented from hoisting the flag bearing the map of six districts of Kalyana Karnataka region.
As many as 15 members of the organisations were detained by the police and released later.

The High Court of Karnataka on Tuesday ordered the issue of a notice to the State government on a PIL petition, which had complained about disturbances caused to people residing in the localities around the National Public School situated in Rajajinagar 5th block due to use of loudspeakers with high volume in the school and parking of school buses in residential areas.
