Horamavu

Horamavu is an area in Bangalore in Indian state of Karnataka. It is a rapidly growing suburb, which is adjacent to other areas such as Banaswadi, Kalkere and Ramamurthy nagar in North Bangalore. The Krishnarajapuram railway station, an important railway junction in Bangalore, is just 3 km away.

Horamavu today is very strategically placed off the ring road and close to three important stations, K.R Puram, Banaswadi and Bangalore East. Horamavu has a good number of planned layouts like Sai Sankalpa Layout, P&T Layout, Nandanam Colony, Ashirwad Colony, Bank Avenue Colony, Papaiya Layout, Coconut Grove Layout, kenchappa garden, brundavan layout etc.

Large scale real estate development in Horamavu is also causing a lot of damage in some part of areas. The Raja Kaluves and lakes are being enroached destroying an area which was once rich in flora and fauna. Like the newly developing areas, there are no areas identified for gardens and parks Bangalore is famous for.

Water is also a serious issue in some areas but in some areas it is witnessed that water has seen at 600 ft. Borewells today have to be dug below 1000 ft to get water. There is no sewage and water supply facilities in the entire Horamavu.
