Abstract: | From Historical Background: Bangalore, is now what we call India’s Silicon valley along with aerospace research, biotechnology and dozens of premier educational institutions. It is perhaps the most westernized city in India. Legend says that a prosperous king of the 11th century, Veera Ballala the 2nd, was on an expedition when he lost his way in the thick forest. After a tiring search for some habitation, he came across an isolated hut. He knocked on the door and was warmly welcomed by a poor woman. The woman had nothing to offer the king, except some boiled beans. The king sumptuously ate the humble meal and left the hut gratefully. He later named the town that sprang up in the region ‘Bendakalooru’ or the town of boiled beans. The name changed as time passed and we have a connoted version of the original today. |
