Abstract: The Maharashtra State Gazetteers: Ahmadnagar District offers a detailed overview of Ahmadnagar’s history, society, economy, administration, and culture. It begins with an introduction and district map, followed by chapters on demographics, agriculture, irrigation, industries, trade, banking, and communications. The gazetteer examines occupations, economic trends, and governance, including revenue, law, and public administration. It highlights local self-government, education, culture, health services, and social welfare, alongside public life and voluntary organizations. Notable places, a directory of villages and towns, appendices, bibliographical references, plates, and an index complete the work, making it an invaluable resource for researchers, planners, and scholars.
