Nijalingappa was born in a village in Bellary district,[1] in the erstwhile Madras Presidency of British India (in the present-day Indian State of Karnataka). His father was a small businessman and mother a homemaker and a devotee of the deity Shiva.[1] Nijalingappa lost his father when he was five. In an interview, Nijalingappa recalled that his "father's ancestors were all rich profligates" and that they "dissipated their wealth on gambling, drinking and womanising." He added that his "mother's father helped [his] parents, but [his family] were still very poor." He grew up in Davanagere and joined secondary school in Chitradurga in 1919. During this time, he was influenced by the political writings of Annie Besant.[2]

As a child, he was given a traditional education by an old teacher named Veerappa Master. Thus, like the other leaders of the Indian Freedom Movement, he also had a unique blend of both traditional and modern education. The life and the vachanas of Basaveshwar and the philosophy of Shankaracharya, as well as the course of the Indian Freedom Movement and the teachings of Mahatma Gandhi had the utmost effect on his mind.
