Builder’s Profile
Today’s Yelahanka is a place with rich heritage. Located near the developed northern section of Greater Bangalore and just 14 kilometres from downtown Bangalore.
The city of Yelahanka had been in existence prior to 12th century. The region was called ‘Ilaipakka Naadu’ during the rule of Cholas. A stone tablet of 1267 A.D found in Doddaballapur mentions Dechi Devarasa, ruling the region with Yelahanka as his capital under the aegis of Hoysala monarch ‘Narasimha (Third)’.Later, during Hoysala rein, the city came to be known as ‘Elavanka’ and gradually shifted to ‘Yelahanka’.
Of the numerous Rulers of different dynasties who ruled with Yelahanka as their Capital, the Kempe Gowdas are the most acclaimed. Hiriya Kempe Gowda (Kempe Gowda the First) built a fort in the adjoining village of Bengaluru and developed it as his new capital, probably due to its strategic location and slightly cooler climate being at a higher altitude. It was his son, Immadi Kempe Gowda, who had the famous watch towers built in the four directions of the new city.
Some Temples in Yelahanka – like the Venugopala Swamy Temple – have remained as a testimony to its rich past. Although a Fort’s remnant could not be traced, a street nearby the Venugopala Swamy Temple is still known as ‘Kote Beedi’ or ‘Fort Street’.
From being a sleepy suburb of Bengaluru, Yelahanka has transformed into one of the most happening business centres
