Ramamurthy Nagar
Ramamurthy Nagar ([ɾːɱʊrʈɪnəɡəɾ] ⓘ) is an area in Bangalore in the Indian state of Karnataka. It is located in the eastern part of Bangalore and comes under the E3 subdivision of BBMP. It is a rapidly growing suburb, adjacent to other areas such as Banaswadi, CV Raman Nagar and Krishnarajapura.
Ramamurthy Nagar today is near the outer ring road and close to four important railway stations: Krishnarajapura, Baiyappanahalli, Banaswadi and B. Channasandra.
Ramamurthy Nagar has many layouts,[definition needed] namely Garden Street Layout, Akshayanagar, Muneshwara Nagar, Bovi Colony, Pragathi Layout, Hoysalanagar, Dr Ambedkar Nagar, Shanti Layout and Gundappa Layout.
Hospitals, Manipal Clinic, and Koshys Hospital and many schools are strategically located in Ramamurthy Nagar.
After the drainage pipes were laid in 2013, BBMP has laid roads in all the areas which were previously untarred. Currently Ramamurthy Nagar is provided with water through the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board's (BWSSB) Cauvery water connection.
Large-scale real estate development in Ramamurthy Nagar is causing damage. The Gangadhar Kere (Kaudenahalli Lake) is being encroached upon, destroying an area formerly rich in flora and fauna. Most of the borewells which were drilled in earlier days have dried up. Like other newly developing areas, there are no areas for gardens and parks.
The new residential settlements around Yerraiana Palya village are called Ramamurthy Nagar. Yerraiahna Palya is a small village with a history dating back more than 200 years. According to oral and agricultural land documents one Shri. Yerraiah/Yerrappa belonged to the warrior tribe Boya or Beda or Nayaka community along with his family members had settled in this village by building small thatched huts initially. [clarification needed] They had come from Dandu Pradesha (the cantonment area) in old Bengaluru (present-day Shivajinagar). Their ancestors lived around the Muthyalamma Temple on Thimmaiah Road in what is now Shivajinagar. Due to a devastating outbreak of disease (probably a plague) which wreaked havoc in Bengaluru, many people in that area fled the congested old city and moved into makeshift huts built in orchards and open fields in the surrounding countryside in order to isolate themselves and avoid infection. Yerraiah was the leader of one such small family group. He brought his near and dear ones out from their dwellings at Dandu Pradesha (cantonment) due to fear of epidemic and built a small group of huts. When the epidemic abated, they seem to have decided not to go back, because the memories of so many loved ones dying was painful, and also, they were not rich people but very poor people and they had found work as agricultural labour in the lush fields and orchards of their new settlement. That settlement began to be known as Yerraiahna Palya, village of yerraiah, in honour of the leader.
For the better part of two centuries, little changed in the village. Thereafter, the city Bangalore began growing. Agricultural lands around the village were gradually transformed into residential layouts. By the mid-1980s, the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) had developed some of the areas in north-east Bengaluru, like OMBR Layout, HRBR Layout, Kasturi Nagar and East of NGEF Layout. The region beyond that was Ramamurthy Nagar, which still remained mainly farmland. It was the IT boom of the mid-and late 90s which took Yerraiah Palya in its sweep. Much of the IT parks are in the East Bangalore area, and Yerraiah Palya is in the same regoion. In the vicinity of these well-planned BDA layouts, Ramamurthy Nagar became a desirable place to live. This area is not developed by the BDA. The farmers converted their farms into layouts and sold the sites to interested buyers which soon became home for the bank employees, ITI staff employees and later software professionals by mid-2000. The BDA developed layouts had all civic amenities, and the growth of these layouts influenced the growth of Ramamurthy Nagar to the great extent, both residentially and commercially.
