:Om Namo Narayanaya: kali means bad (papam). After death of lord Krishna this Kaliyuga started. Exactly 5103 years back. Now 5104 year is running. If you want exactly what are these yugas and its history you can get from puranams. In bhkati list previously somebody has already posted this theory. 100 Brahma dina kalpam ----Brahma kalpam 14 manvantaras -- 1 Brahma dina kalpam 72 Mahayugas --1 manvantara 1 mahayuga --- (satya,treta,dwapara,kali) kali - 1* 432000 Dwapara - 2* 432000 Treta - 3* 432000 Satya - 4* 432000 For every yuga we get yuga pralaya..and every mahayuga we get mahayuga pralaya..and for every manvantara pralaya..etc.. Now 7th manvantaras 28th mahayugas last yuga kaliyugas 5104 year is going on.. If you calculate these years till now aroung 200 crore years passed on.. This time is eactly matching with the shila phalka on Tirumala hills..This is the big wonder.. This time is exactly matching with our puranas..

I read somewhere that the birth of Kali was the reason why this is called KaliYuga.
