Krishna Rajendra Market (also known as K. R. Market) is an underground metro station on the North-South corridor of the Green Line of Namma Metro serving K. R. Market in Bengaluru, India. It was opened to the public on 18 June 2017.[2]

In January 2017, The Hindu reported that the station would most likely be named Fort (Kote) Station.[3] The station is located close to several heritage sites such as Tipu Sultan's Summer Palace, his armoury in Kalasipalyam, the mud fort, Kote Venkataramana Swamy temple, and the century-old Victoria and Vanivilas hospitals. The BMRCL plans to integrate the station with the nearby landmarks, and recreate a historic ambience at the station by displaying a cannon used by Tipu Sultan at the station.[4]
