Brief Introduction of Jalna district : The town Jalna, the headquarters of this district traceable as far back as the time of Lord Rama, the hero of Ramayana, whose consort Sita is supposed to have resided here. The local people still point out the place where Rama’s palace stood. It was then known as Janakpur. Subsequently at the desire of a wealthy Mohammedan merchant, who is said to have been a great benefactor of the place, the name was changed to Jalna from his occupation of Jalaha or weaver. Archaeological excavations made in the neighbouring district suggest that this region was occupied in the early stone age. The earliest period known from excavations is the Chalcolithic or early bronze age. According to the literary tradition when the Aryans penetrated to the 2 Deccan, the whole region was covered by thick jungle. Agastya was the first Aryan who crossed the Vindhyas and fixed his residence on the bank of the Godavari. From the Ramayana, we learn that Lord Rama accompanied by his brother Lakshman and wife Sita met Agastya near the Godavari. It is said that Buddhism was first introduced in Maharashtra in the reign of Ashoka. This led to the excavation of caves in the different parts of Maharashtra. After the death of Ashoka, the Satavahanas rose to power in the Deccan and they made Prastishthana (Modern Paithan) as their capital. They received support from local rulers called Maharathis. Their Kingdom extended up to Pune, Nashik, Ahmadnagar, Aurangabad and Jalna districts. During the period of Satavahanas, the Jalna district must have attained a high level of prosperity. In the sixth century, the Chalukyas took over this region. Badami (Bijapur district) was their capital. Their kingdom extended up to the Narmada in the north. The Chinese pilgrim Hiuen Tsang calls about King Pulakeshi from Chalukya dynasty as the Lord of Maharashtra. From the early thirteenth century onwards, Muslim rulers started invading this region. They conquered many small forts. The prominent being the Devgiri fort. Jalna was held in ‘Jagir’ by one of the generals of Akbar, Abul Fazl who had made it his residence for a short period. It was under Marathas after 1728, till extinction of the Maratha power and subsequently reverted to the Nizams of Hyderabad. The Nizams ruled this region till 1948. After Independence, the Hyderabad state acceded to the Indian union after a brief but brilliant police action that put an end to the Nizams rule consequent upon the integration of Jagirs and Sarf-e-Khas, all the taluka boundaries were reconstituted in April 1950 and a new mahal (Tahsil) with headquarters at Jafferabad was created.
