Asia's First Electric Street Light Lit in Bangalore in 1905

On August 5, 1905, the first electric street light in Asia was lit in the city of Bangalore, India. This was a significant milestone in the development of the city and the country as a whole.

The electric street light was powered by hydroelectric power from the Cauvery Falls at Shivanasamudra. The transmission lines passed through Bangalore, and the excess power was used to light up the streets of the city.
