Kumbalgodu (also spelled as Kumbalagodu) is a town located on the outskirts of the Indian city of Bengaluru.
Etymology
[edit]The name Kumbalgodu is derived from two Kannada words, 'Kumbala/Kumbla' (ಕುಂಭಳ / ಕುಂಬ್ಲ) which refers to the Ash Gourd (a species of vine) or in some usages a small pond/tank and 'Godu' (ಗೋಡು) which means settlement, hamlet, or boundary. Put together, Kumbalgodu could mean “the settlement where ash gourds grew abundantly” or “a hamlet near the pond/tank”.
Location
[edit]It is situated along the Mysore Road between Kengeri and Bidadi, and, according to the 2011 census, has a population of over 10,000.[1]
