HISTORY OF TIPPA
• The Pandavas and their mother Kunti were in
exile.They lived in a brahmin’s house in a
agraharam who provided food and shelter to
them.
• Bakasura a demon who lived near the city of

Ekachakra and forced the king to send him daily
a large quantity of provisions, which he
devoured, and not only the provisions, but the
men who carried them
• It was the turn of the Brahmin’s family to offer

food to Bakasura so they were worried as to who
the person would be.
• Kunti said she would send one of her sons
to Bakasura and save the Brahmin
family. Bhima took the stead of a bait
villager and went with supplies to Bakasura.
• In order to irritate Bakasura, Bhima
himself ate all the food. Bakasura's anger
knew no bounds. A fierce battle erupted
between the two and finally, Bhima killed
Bakasura.
• Tippa is the place where Bakasura took
shelter during this time.
• Bakasura dug a well near tippa for water.
