'''Sir M. Visveshwaraya Stn., Central College''' is a station in the [[Purple Line (Namma Metro)|Purple Line]] of the [[Namma Metro]] in [[Bangalore]], India, opened to the public on 30 April 2016.

The station acquires its name from the nearby [[University Visvesvaraya College of Engineering]], which had been named after [[M. Visvesvaraya]], an Indian engineer, scholar, statesman and the [[Diwan of Mysore]] from 1912 to 1918.<ref>{{cite web|title=A First-hand Account of Namma Metro's Underground Ride|url=http://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/bengaluru/A-First-hand-Account-of-Namma-Metros-Underground-Ride/2016/04/29/article3405994.ece|website=The New Indian Express|accessdate=29 April 2016}}</ref>

==History==
The Sir M.
