We demand an immediate end to this violence.

🔴 Arun Prasad, independent researcher on Bengaluru history and head of Discover Bengaluru, said that Richmond Town was named after Thomas Richmond, a barrister in the British Government.

Sometime in the last decade, Richmond Town was renamed Sir Mirza Ismail Nagar, after the former Dewan of Mysore State. “Mirza Ismail’s grandfather, Persian Businessman Aga Ali Asker, owned large tracts of land in Richmond Town and was also instrumental in designing its layout,” added Arun Prasad.

*Names of 6 Bengaluru Metro stations changed ahead of inauguration*

The names of the stations were changed due to popular demand from the residents. This will help them in identifying the stations with ease. The new name KR Puram is Krishnarajapura. Even in the government records the name of the area is Krishnarajapura,” an official with BMRCL said.

Imam Ali Ibn Abu Talib (ع) said:

“O the servants of Allah! The state in the grave of a person whose sins are not forgiven is more horrifying than death itself. Fear it’s (grave’s) narrowness, it's squeezing, its imprisonment, & its loneliness. The grave is like a garden of Paradise for a good-doer, while it is like a dungeon of hell for the evil-doer.” - (Manazil Al-Akhirah- Shiekh Abbas Qummi)
