Surya’s International Inc Presents The Annual Kadalekayi Parishe at Bangalore, Karnataka, India. By Surendra Kapadia

LEGEND During the 15th century, this part of Basavanagudi was a village called Sunkenahalli, predominantly surrounded by groundnut fields. Legend has it that every year, Basava a bull, would raid these fields and damage the crops just before the harvest. To stop him, the farmers decided to attack him with sticks. They hatched a plan and waited at the spot. Basava came in and just as they were about to attack, he started running up to the hilltop and there right in front of the villagers he transformed himself into a stone idol . Ever since people have made this offering their annual tribute, rather a fine, for their act. It is also believed that Basava also comes to the fair every year and enjoys his share of groundnuts.
