History

Kumaraswamy Layout was formed in the late 1970's by the BDA. In recent years, it has been seeing development under the BBMP. Many residential infrastructure projects have been carried out in the locality, with many still in progress. Despite good progress in infrastructure, economy and population growth, there have been issues pertaining to garbage collection, cleanliness, public safety and water-logging. [5] [6] [7]
