(Varshney 2011; Bjork- propertied classes wielded enough power to draw man 2015) If India’s cities generate nearly 85% of the country’s capital and resources from cities into the rural gross domestic product (GDP), why are their revenues not hinterland. However, as cities cease to be mere sites of invested in better public services? To some political scientists, extraction, agrarian elites have sought new terms the answer lies in India’s political–economic para-dox: economic power is concentrated in cities, but political power of inclusion in contemporary India’s market-oriented resides in villages (Varshney 1995).

Politicians cannot afford to ignore constituency” into Mumbai’s real estate markets. agrarian interests without grave losses at the ballot boxes. It is this configuration of political–economic power that explains why “for politicians, the city has primarily become a site of extraction, and the countryside is predominantly a site of legitimacy and power” (Varshney 2011).

Peshwas went on conquering places as far as Panipat and Atak and extending the boundaries of the kingdom beyond Chambal river in North India. This finest palace of the time (1730-1818) but now in dilapidated condition is in the heart of the Pune city. This palace as it finally stood was a seven-storeyed building with four large and several small courts some of which were named as Ganapati Rang Mahal, Nach Diwankhana, Arse Maltal, Hastidanti Mahal. Today, the remains (enclosure, plinths and the surrounding wall) are mute witnesses of the past Maratha glory.
