CM Siddaramaiah talks about Kempa Gowda’s Anniversary

“Today is Kempe Gowda’s 515th birth anniversary, and the government is celebrating it across the state. Kempe Gowda built the city of Bengaluru and was a pro-people ruler. During the reign of the erstwhile ruler Krishnadevaraya of the Vijayanagara kingdom, Kempe Gowda ruled the Bengaluru region and established the city of Bengaluru,” Siddaramaiah recounted.

“He also built hundreds of lakes. The lakes were established in greater numbers during Kempe Gowda’s rule. He built temples, created localities based on professions in the city, and made honest efforts to make Bengaluru a trade centre. We should not forget that if Bengaluru has become a global city in present times, Kempe Gowda is behind it,” CM Siddaramaiah stated.

“The government is celebrating Kempe Gowda Jayanti on a large scale for the first time, and we have also formed an authority in his name. His administration is a model, and I remember him at this juncture,” he maintained.
