A bomb threat via email forced the evacuation of a private school in Kalaburagi, according to local police. The threat, ultimately a hoax, prompted an extensive search of the premises.

Kalaburagi police commissioner Sharanappa S D stated that law enforcement, informed by the school, arrived quickly to ensure student safety and conducted a thorough inspection with an anti-sabotage team.
