  • Shivaji's Fortunes and Possessions
    The Life of Shivaji Maharaj, 414-420, 2017 (Online Edition). N. Takakhav Chapter 31 Shivaji’s Fortunes and Possessions N. S. Takakhav Professor, Wilson College, Bombay. Editor Published Online Kiran Jadhav 17 March 2018 The life story of Shivaji has been told in the preceding chapters. It is proposed in the present chapter to make an attempt to estimate the extent of his power, possessions and wealth at the time of his death. Nor should it be quite an uninteresting subject to make such an audit of his wealth and possessions, seeing that it furnishes an index to the measure of his success in his ceaseless toils of over thirty-six years, in that war of redemption which he had embarked upon against the despotism of the Mahomedan rulers of the country. At the time when the Rajah Shahaji transferred his allegiance from the fallen house of the Naizam Shahi sultans to that of the still prosperous Adil Shahi dynasty and in the service of that government entered upon the sphere of his proconsular authority in the Karnatic, he had left his Maharashtra jahgirs, as we have seen, under the able administration of the loyal Dadaji Kondadev. These jahgir estates comprised the districts of Poona, Supa, Indapur, Daramati and a portion of the Maval country. This was the sole patrimony derived by Shivaji from his illustrious father at the time he embarked upon his political career. Even these districts were held on the sufferance of the Bijapur government and were saddled with feudal burdens. That government was in a position to have cancelled or annexed these jahgirs at any time.

Keywords: Ecotourism, Wildlife Sanctuary, Flora, Fauna etc. 1.1 Introduction: The nature based tourism is growing vastly which can become the important channel to utilise wisely the biodiversity and wildlife. Ecotourism is a new approach in tourism. It was introduced in Africa with legalization of hunting in Africa in 1950. This need for recreational hunting zones lead to the creation of protected areas, national parks, and game reserves. The term ecotourism is given by Hector Ceballos- Lascurian in 1983. Recently, the growth of ecotourism and tourism industry compared and the result was that 20 to 35 per cent growth recorded by Ecotourism as compared to the growth by tourism recorded merely 4 to 5 per cent annually. India has been launched the Ecotourism concept in the wild areas of National Parks, Wildlife Sanctuary and cultural areas. Ecotourism is accepted by Government of Maharashtra.

Depending on a traveller’s particular interests, he will seek information on local attractions and activities that meet his needs. The word “itinerary,” means, “the route of a journey or tour, or the proposed outline of one.” Anyone who has planned a trip would appreciate the importance of having some idea of what they plan to see and do at their destination. In fact, that kind of knowledge could determine the selection of the tourist destination itself. Also, suggested itineraries can be very helpful for independent travellers once they arrive at their destination. Traditionally, self-guiding pamphlets and guides serve this purpose. Itinerary development can be a powerful tool in organizing information about an area’s attractions and presenting that information to visitors in an appealing manner.

This is the birthplace of Shivaji, the founder of the Marat Empire. Shivnery's history has been known as a place of Buddhist rule since the 1st century AD. Its caves, rock architecture and water system indicate the presence of housing since the 1st century AD. This fort was used mainly to guard the old trade route from Desh to the port city of Kalyan. This place passed to the Sultanate of Bahmani after the weakening of the Delhi Sultanate in the 15th century, and then passed to the Sultanat Ahmadnagar in the 16th century. In 1595, a Marathi leader named Maloji Bhonsle, shivaji Bhosale's grandfather, was included by Ahmadnagar Sultan Bahadur Nizam Shah and gave him Shivnery and Chaban. Shivaji was born in Fort on February 19, 1630 (some accounts place it 1627), and spent his childhood there. Inside the fort is a small temple dedicated to the goddess Shiwai Devi, after whom Shivaji was named.
