City of Doddaballapura

Doddaballapura is a city and the district headquarters of Bengaluru North district in the state of Karnataka, India. Dodda means "big" in the native language Kannada. It is an industrial city which houses several national companies, and lies 40 km away from Bangalore. The place is mentioned as Ballalapura thanda in a record dated 1598 from the local Adinarayana temple. It might have originated from the Hoysala name Ballala, and later become corrupted as Ballapura. It is also believed that the village derived its name from a cow used to drop one 'balla' of milk over a certain anthill and this omen led to the foundation of the town. From 'balla' the name Ballapura was thus derived.
