The Union Cabinet on 17 July 2013 gave its approval for renaming Bengaluru International Airport as "Kempegowda International Airport" to fulfill the long pending demand of the people of Karnataka, as well as the State Government of Karnataka.

Bengaluru International Airport (BIA) is the premiere Greenfield Airport in South India.

The Karnataka Legislative Assembly passed a unanimous  resolution on 10.12.2012 and the Legislative Council also passed a similar resolution two days later to rename Bengaluru International Airport as "Kempegowda International Airport".

 Background

Hiriya Kempegowda, known as Kempegowda was a ruler under the Vijayanagar Empire, who ruled most parts of Karnataka during the sixteenth century.  He had the vision of building a large futuristic city and is widely accepted as being the founder of Bengaluru.  Kempegowda built Bengaluru Fort and moved his capital from Yelahanka to the new Bengaluru.

Chief Justice of India Altamas Kabir retires today

Chief Justice of India Altamas Kabir retires today


Chief Justice of India Altamas Kabir retires on Thursday (18.07.2013) after a brief term of nine months. He was appointed a Supreme Court Judge on September 9, 2005. A stickler for discipline, procedures and rules, Justice Kabir had endeared himself to members of the Bar and the Bench with his humility. Like his predecessor S.H. Kapadia, he was reticent; throughout his tenure as Chief Justice, he avoided meeting journalists. Justice Kabir rendered several landmark judgments in the Supreme Court, especially those relating to human rights and election laws.


Justice P. Sathasivam, seniormost judge of the Supreme Court, will be the next and the 40th Chief Justice of India. Read more>>>>>Click Here
