AHMADNAGAR, Maharashtra

Main Attraction: Ahmadnagar Fort


Built by Ahmed Nizam Shah in 1490, this is one of the best-designed and most impregnable forts in India. A target of countless invasions, the Ahmednagar Fort has taken many blows and come out relatively unscathed. It has changed hands many times over from the time of Mughal rule, and was used as a royal prison a number of times.

Brief History

The district of Ahmadnagar is named after Ahmadnagar town. The town is famous since the medieval times. In the year 1490 when Ahmad Nizam Shah, the founder of the Nizam dynasty defeated the Bahamani troops under Jahangir Khan near its site. This Victory was called the Victory of the Garden. Because on that spot Ahmad Shah built a palace and laid out a garden. In the year 1494 he laid the foundation of the city close to the bag Nizam upon the left bank of the sina river and called after himself Ahmad Nagar or the city of Ahmad.

Ahmadnagardistrict, popularly called Nagar and came into existance in 1818. In 1822, its boundaries spread between Vani in Dindori sub-division of Nashik and Karmala in Solapur district . In 1830 Solapur sub-collectorate was inducted in the district and continued as such till it gained the status of an independent collectorate in 1838. During 1837-38, Nashik subcollectorate comprising of sub-divisions of Sinnar, Chandor, Dindori, Nashik, Igatpuri and Peinttahsil was under Ahmadnagar district. Subsequently this sub-collectorate of Nashik was abolished in 1856 and the area reverted to Ahmadnagar district. 1869 witnessed the declaration of Solapur and Nashik as independent districts , thus leading to the shaping and emergence of present Ahmadnagar district.

In fact the district has a chequered history of evolution in as much as in 1891 it included the sub-divisions of Jamkhed, Newasa, Shrigonda, Shevgaon, Sangamner, Nagar, Kopargaon, Akola, Karjat, Parner and Rahuri. In 1913 PathardiPeta was created and the remaining part of Jamkhedtaluka was renamed as JamkhedMahal. Subsequently, Karjattaluka was down graded as KarjatPeta during 1931-41. 1941-51 was marked by the upgrading of Pathardi and KarjatPetas as KarjatTaluka. In 1945 Shrirampurtaluka came into being. Jurisdictional changes of 1950 resulted in the transfer of 21 villages from Bid district to Ahmadnagar district on the contrary the district had to lose 26 villages to Bid disrict and one village to Aurangabad district. With the reorganization of State, the district was incorporated into Bombay State in 1956. However since 1960, it constitutes a part of Maharashtra State.
