BANGALORE & YOU

It is among the top 10 preferred entrepreneurial locations in the
world. Bangalore is home to many well-recognized colleges and research
institutions in India. Numerous public sector heavy industries,
technology companies, aerospace, telecommunications, and defense
organizations are located in the city. Bangalore is known as the “Silicon
Valley of India” because of its position as the nations leading IT
exporter. A demographically diverse city, Bangalore is a major
economic and cultural hub and the second fastest growing major
metropolis in India.
Bangalore, also
rendered Bengaluru, is the
capital of the
Indian state of Karnataka.
Located on the Deccan
Plateau in the south-eastern
part of Karnataka. Bangalore is
India's third most populous
city and fifth-most populous
urban agglomeration.
Bangalore is well known as a
hub for India's information
technology sector.
Bangalore, the capital of the State of Karnataka, is one of India‟s
most charming cities. Today, it is India‟s 5th largest city and the
momentum of its industrial and commercial growth is unequalled
in the country. Aptly named “Garden City”, it boasts of an amazing
number of flowering trees and parks. With splendid pink cassias
and golden acacia’s blooming, with jacarandas flowering in
purple majesty, and gulmohur’s lighting the roads with their
brilliant orange flame- the city is a delight to simply wander
around in.

The city of Bangalore has quite an interesting history attached to
it. Right from its name to its becoming the IT Capital of India,
each stage in the history of Bangalore is worth mentioning. Read
on to know more about the history of “Bengalooru”, India.
Naming of Bangalore
There are numerous versions related to the naming of the city as
'Bangalore'. As per the information available in the Gazetteer of
India, the term 'Bangalore' is an anglicized version of
"Bengalooru," a Kannad term. The word Bengalooru was in turn
derived from the phrase 'bende kaalu ooru', meaning 'the town
of boiled beans'. There is story behind naming the city as the
'town of boiled beans'.
It is said that King Ballala of the Hoysala dynasty once got lost
in the jungle and was very tired and hungry. In the jungle, he
came across a poor and old woman, who offered him some boiled
beans. As an expression of his gratitude towards the woman, the
King named the place as 'bende kaalu ooru'. However, there are
other historical evidences that reveal that the name 'Bengalooru'
was recorded much before the reign of King Ballala.
The Time of Kempe Gowda
Kempe Gowda, known as the founder of Bangalore, played a very
important in the shaping of the city. A feudal lord himself, he used
to serve under the Vijayanagara Kings. A hunting enthusiast,
Kempe Gowda once saw his dog being chased by a hare. Amused
as well as impressed up this incident, he started calling Bangalore
as 'Gandu bhoomi' (heroic place). He, with the help of King
Achutaraya, built a mud fort in Bangalore and inside it founded
the towns of Balepet, Cottonpet, and Chickpet. Later, his son got
the four watchtowers erected on the boundaries of the city, visible
even today.
11
Reign of the Sultans, Marathas and British
In the year 1638, the Vijayanagara Empire fell to the Sultan of Bijapur, Mohammed Adil Shah. For the
next sixty years, the city was under the rule of the Sultans. Thereafter, Mughals took over the city.
However, their rule did not last too long and in 1687, they sold the kingdom to King Chikkadevaraja
Wodeyar of Mysore. He got another fort built in Bangalore, to the south of the one built by Kempe
Gowda. Hyder Ali received Bangalore in the form of jagir in 1759, from Krishna Raja Wodeyar II. He
converted the city into an army town.
In the year 1799, when Tipu Sultan died, the British returned the kingdom back to Krishna Raja
Wodeyar III. However, the British again took over the kingdom in 1831, citing misrule by Krishna
raja Wodeyar III as the reason. It was under the British rule that Bangalore started developing into a
modern city, with all the contemporary facilities like railways, telegraphs, post and telegraph, etc. The
city was again given back to the Wodeyars in 1881. However, since the British Commissioners were
based in Bangalore, its development into a contemporary city continued unabated.
Post-Independence
After India gained independence in the year 1947, Bangalore became the capital of Karnataka. From
then onwards, the city has witnessed large-scale development and has grown in leaps and bounds.
IT Capital of India
The introduction of information technology in Bangalore, somewhere around the year 2000, led to the
development of the city as the IT Capital of India. Today, it has become the hub of IT professionals in
India. There are numerous other names given to Bangalore, like 'India's Silicon Valley', 'The Fashion
Capital of India', 'The Pub City of India', etc.
Re-naming as Bengalooru
The city of Bangalore got renamed as Bengalooru in the year 2006. Even though the term
'Bangalore' is still very common, now the official name of the city is Bengalooru.

CLIMATE Bangalore’s climatic conditions are considered to be the best in India. With the weather
being not hot- not cold, it makes a perfect tourist destination.
Bangalore experiences a tropical savanna climate with distinct wet and dry seasons. Due

year. The coolest month is December with an average low temperature of 15.4 °C and the
hottest month is April with an average high temperature of 32.8 °C. Bangalore receives
rainfall from both the northeast and the southwest monsoons and the wettest months are

According to “The Lonely
Planet”, which is rated as the
Worlds best Travel Magazine,
Bangalore is the 3rd BEST
CITY to visit in the World. No
other Indian city is even
included in the top 10.
This shows that Bangalore is the
best place to be in India. It is a
blend of splendid natural
beauty, booming
technological advancements
and a deep heritage which
dates back centuries.
According to THE LONELY PLANET:
“The undisputed Elvis of South Asian megacities, Bengaluru is in a
class of its own when it comes to redefining flamboyance. Perpetually
drunk on the good life, this South Indian metropolis packs in the
best brews, the scummiest cuisines, and the liveliest arts and music
scene, not to mention the hippest population you could hang out
with. This year, evenings in the „capital of cool‟ are poised to get even
more intoxicating. And if the maddening traffic has always been your
concern, take heart: Bengaluru new high-speed Metro network now
ensures that your favorite watering hole is easier to reach than ever.
There‟s only one thing you could say to that: „Chill maadi!‟ “
