Pune
( Marathi: पुणे), formerly known as Punawadi or Punya-Nagari or Poona,
is the eighth largest city in India, and the second largest in the state
of Maharashtra, after Mumbai. Situated 560 metres above sea level on the
Deccan plateau at the confluence of the Mula (Marathi: मुळा) and Mutha
rivers (Marathi: मुठा) [3], Pune is the administrative capital of Pune
district and the 7th Metro city of India.
Pune is known to have existed as a town since 937 AD.[4] Shivaji
Raje,the founder of the Maratha Empire, lived in Pune as a boy, and
later oversaw significant growth and development of the town during his
reign. In 1730, Pune became an important political centre as the seat of
the Peshwa, the prime minister of the Chhatrapati of Satara. After the
town was annexed to British India in 1817, it served as a cantonment
town and as the "monsoon capital" of the Bombay Presidency until the
independence of India. <more>
