Jayanagar is one of the prime and popular localities of South Bengaluru. The history of Jayanagar goes back to 1948, Maharaja Jayachamarajendra Wadiyar. It was one of Bangalore’s earliest planned localities and at the time it was Asia’s largest. Jayanagar has long been considered Bangalore’s southernmost district and it was said that Jayanagar is the end of south Bengaluru. The historic Ashoka Pillar (which was supposed to represent the southern terminus) and the “South End Circle,” where six routes intersect, was supposed to be the end of south Bengaluru. But as and when the population grew, the city started to grow along all the borders. As of today, Jayanagar has 10 blocks, in which most of which are residential.
