Nagpur, Educational hub in Maharashtra, India

The third largest city in Maharashtra stands at an elevation of 310 meters with low flat-topped hills and fertile black soil valleys.

Founded in 1702 by Gond King Bakht Buland Shah, Nagpur became a British territory in 1853 and capital of the Central Provinces in 1861.

The Deekshabhoomi monument, recognized as the largest hollow stupa among Buddhist structures, marks a significant spiritual destination for Buddhist followers in India.

The city connects four metropolitan centers of India through its strategic location, featuring extensive rail networks and an international airport.

The National Environmental Engineering Research Institute and National Cotton Research Institute conduct scientific studies on agricultural development and environmental conservation.
