Davanagere is a city in the centre of the southern Indian state of Karnataka. It is the seventh largest city in the state, and the administrative headquarters of eponymous Davangere district.[1] Hitherto being a cotton hub and hence popularly known before as the Manchester of Karnataka, the commercial ventures of the city is now dominated by education and agro-processing industries.[citation needed] Davanagere became a separate district in 1997,[2] when it was separated from the erstwhile undivided district of Chitradurga for administration conveniences. Davanagere is known for rich culinary traditions which encompass the diversity of entire Karnataka's dishes due to its geographical position in the state as its centre. Notable among them is its aromatic benne dose.[3][4]

It was among the first 20 towns to be developed under the mission by Ministry of Urban Development.[5] According to 2020 human living index, it was selected as the top 9th most livable city with a population under 10 million in India.
