Ahilyanagar, District capital in Maharashtra, India
The city lies at 649 meters elevation in the Balaghat Range along the Sina River, featuring military establishments and industrial facilities.
Malik Ahmad Nizam Shah I established the city in 1494 on an ancient settlement called Bhingar, making it the capital of the Ahmadnagar Sultanate.
The Ahmednagar Fort, now a military training center, contains architectural elements from multiple periods and served as a detention facility for Indian independence leaders.
The city maintains connections through 24 express trains at its railway station and road networks linking to Mumbai, Pune, and other Maharashtra urban centers.
The district holds the highest concentration of sugar factories in Maharashtra, with the first cooperative sugar factory in Asia established in the nearby Pravanagar.
