(1) Bombay Suburban District, June 21.—Meetings were held daily throughout the week as usual with very small attendance averaging 50. On the 19th Pandit Motilal Nehru visited the Chhawani at Ville Parle. On that occasion some 1,500 people assembled. The chief speakers were Abdulla Rahimtulla, Vrashabhadas Javeri, Pandit Motilal Nehru and Indravijay Desai. There were more accounts of the Dharasna raids, and the work done by the chhawanis daily, was narrated. Appeals for fresh volunteers were also made. Motilal Nehru stated that he was glad to see the chhawani and appreciated its system of working. The Chhawani had worked well and was fit to be the head chhawani in Maharashtra. He had requested his European friends for a long time to consider the state of India, but, as they were all of one mind, nobody cared for India. In European countries ladies were respected, while in India they were being disrespected and beaten regularly. The weapons of Government had to be faced by charkas and taklis which instruments would bring them swaraj. Their struggle should be continued in spite of every difficulty. Dharmanand Kosambi on one occasion requested the volunteers to be honest and not to disclose any information about the chhawani. The police appeared to know every detail about the chhawani and he suspected that some one in the chhawani was giving out all information. This was treachery to the mother-land. (2) Ghatkopar.—Meetings were held at Ghatkopar, Bhandup, Mulund and Chembur. Chief speakers: Kripal Shamji Jiwani, Bechoo Damodhar of Bhandup, Vifhal Narayan Purav of Chambur, and N. B. Gantrai (Secretary, Mulund Coneress Committee.) Praises were given to those who went to jail or were ill-treated in the present movement. The British in the olden days had resolved not to import Indian goods into England, imposing a fine of £ 200 on anybody found doing so. In this way Indian goods had been boycotted. Now that they were endeavouring to do a similar thing to English goods, Government had produced an Ordinance. The people of India are disgusted because thev have been slaves of the British Government for 150 years. India had been drained by the taxes on salt, liquor and foreign 709 cloth, which taxes went to feed the people of England. Other nations arc finding fault with the British which made them afraid and they would shortly leave India. (3) Andheri.—Meetings were held at Andheri (2), Versowa, Malad and Manori. Audiences varied from 50 to 100. Chief speakers:—Dr. Ramchandra M. Bhoir, Dilkush Dawawalla, Bhagwant Janardhan Mhatre, Motiram Hirji Kaskar and Govind Keroba Date. Most of the speeches were on the evils of spending money on toddy and liquor. Taxes should not be paid to Government. It was disgrace-ful that so few people took part in the movement from these parts. The movement had not stopped and all should help. (4)Bandra.—A meeting was held by K. Natrajan, who addressed some 400 people of all communities. All were urged to forget caste and creed and join the Civil Disobedience Movement. He gave a history of Gandhi's life, comparing him with Christ. There were eight other minor speakers five of whom were women. (5)Thana, June 29.—Villagers refused to work in the Forests in Manor range. There is likely to be no bidding at the next forest auctions, as contractors have not been paid for the timber sent to Gujerat last year. (6)Nasik, June 21.—Four volunteers proceeded from Yeola to Sangamner for forest satyagraha. A volunteer from Kalamsare, Pachora taluka, East Khandesh, named Govind Narayan Yadav, Maratha, passed through Manmad on June 10 and collected some Rs. 70 by selling tickets in aid of the Civil Disobedience War Council. On June 19, after a meeting at Kalwan some 12 volunteers gave their names for taking part in forest satyagraha. Sitaram Shastri has been busy during the week (touring the northern part of the district making strenuous efforts to get the people to join the forest satyagraha movement Phatak and Shevale, pleaders, in the Satana taluka have also showed considerble keenness over this movement, getting up meetings and stirring up trouble generally.

    810 167 Vol. No. XLIII No. 35 of 1930. BOMBAY PRESIDENCY POLICE ABSTRACT OF INTELLIGENCE Poona, August 30, 1930. POLITICAL, POLITICO-RELIGIOUS AND RACIAL MOVEMENT 1465. Civil Disobedience Movement. General Summary. (1) S. B., Bombay Presidency, Poona, August 16.—In the northern districts, agitation among students has been noticeable, while in Nasik, West Khandesh, Satara and in the southern districts agitation against the forest laws continues. National flag agitation, which is a form of propaganda which costs little but which easily raises passions, has been much exploited. National flag agitation has also been employed to inflame the youths in Poona and a part of students from the Benares Hindu University sponsored by Pandit Malaviya have helped to stimulate them. Women have also taken part in picketing the Fergusson College here, though not with great success. 1The Rajadroha was probably the vernacular version of the Revolt. See Daily Report part of this volume. 811 Forest agitation has been given a religious tinge, and a leaflet has appeared in West Khandesh telling the villagers that the cow, which is sacred to them, used to be well-ted in the past when grazing was free, but that this satanic Government has been changing all this by repressive grazing laws. The prospect of free grazing ana iree wood from the forest, combined with appeals on behalf of the cow, are likely to prove a stimulant to agitation an these parts. The simpleminded Bhil and his more sophisticated Maratha neighbour of Sakri taluka in West Khandesh district, and the adjoining parts of the Nasik district are likely to respond to it if counter measures are not adopted.

Chapter 4 gives d e ta ils of agro-produce of the d is t r ic t . I t is found that, both ag ric u ltu re as well as agro-based industries had no speedy progress in the district during the decade. This chapter emphasises some of the problems of a g ric u ltu re and agro-based industries in Ahmed­ nagar d is t r ic t . 7.2 TalukaMise irrigation sources and imbalance in net irrigated area in the district There are 13 talukas in the Ahmednagar district, some of them were irrig a te d , whereas some were dry. Ir r ig a tio n was unequal in the d is t r ic t during the decade 1981-90. This imbalance in irrigation created imbalance in agricultural development. Water is also the basic need for industrialisa­ tion, but there was scarcity of water even for drinking in Pathardi, Shevgaon, Jamkhed, Parner and Karjat talukas. Agro-industrialisation was very slow in these talukas due to non availability of water supply. Inadequate water supply affects the production of agro-based industries, for exam­ ple, paper mill of Sangamner sugar factory was facing a 241 severe problem of water supply during the year 1986-87, which affected the production of th is m ill.^ There are two types of irrigation. One is well irriga­ tion and the other is surface irrigation.
