Bengaluru is the capital city of the Karnataka state in southern India. With a metropolitan population of 11 million, it is the 3rd largest city in India. Situated at an elevation of over 900 meters above sea level, the climate is one of the most pleasant in the country, and with its many parks and green spaces, it is known as the Garden City of India.
Bengaluru is also the “Silicon Valley” of India, with the country’s highest concentration of IT companies. As a result, Bengaluru has drawn a large number of European and Asian immigrants. While the city is primarily Hindu, there are significant populations of Sikhs and Muslims and one of the largest Christian communities in the nation.
The name of the city was changed in 2014 as part of the renaming of eleven cities in the region, primarily to revert to a more localized pronunciation, rather than the British method.
Bengaluru’s Christian community was mostly middle and upper class in the past, but now many lower castes and slums dwellers are becoming believers, especially through the ministries of charismatic churches. Yet despite being 8% of the population, Christians have thus far failed to make any major impact on Bengaluru.
