Thingalaya's comment
[edit]This locality abutting the estuary of River Netravati and River Gurpur was a very busy bazar until the 1950s, when the tile industry was in good shape. Country crafts from all ports on the west coast from Veraval in Gujarat, Dabhol and Ratnagiri from Maharashtra and Tuticorin from Tamil Nadu as well as from Colombo in Sri Lanks were anchoring here to carry tiles to different ports. With the decline of tile industry, this part of the city has become a sleepy locality. People from this ward have played a significant role in the freedom struggle. There is located here Sree Jnanodaya Samaj Mandir, a 100 year old educational institution, which was visited by Mahatma Gandhiji in 1932, when he visited Mangalore.
