Map of Kadidal, Karnataka
The village is dominated by the gowda community. The place was named in memory of a great warrior who won many battles for a king in the past. The place has five main families. Kadidal Manjappa (The former chief minister of Karnataka) and the renowned orthopedic surgeon Dr. K.T. Surendra were both from this place.
Calling Kadidal a village may be a misnomer in the view of some people since Kadidal has only about 5 houses and all its inhabitants are related to each other.
