Pune once upon a time

is the ninth most crowded city in India and the second-biggest in the territory of Maharashtra, after the state capital Mumbai. The historical backdrop of the city is firmly identified with the ascent of the Maratha realm from seventeenth eighteenth century. In the eighteenth century, Pune turned into the political focal point of the Indian subcontinent, as the seat of the Peshwas, who were the leaders of the Maratha Empire After the fall of the Peshwa rule in 1818, the new British rulers made the city one of their significant army installations. Preceding the British takeover, the city was bound toward the eastern bank of the Mutha stream. From that point forward, the city has developed on the two sides of the stream. In the nineteenth and mid-twentieth century, Pune was considered by the British as the focal point of political turmoil against their standard. The post-autonomy time saw Pune developing as a significant assembling focus.  The post-autonomy period has likewise observed further development in the advanced education area in the city. The Panshet surge of 1961 brought about enormous loss of lodging on the waterway bank and prodded the development of new rural areas. In the 1990s, the city rose as a significant data innovation center point.
