''Note: National, provincial and district boundaries have changed considerably since 1908. Typically, old states, ‘divisions’ and districts have been broken into smaller units, and many tahsils upgraded to districts. Some units have since been renamed. Therefore, this article is being posted mainly for its historical value. ''

=Jamner Taluka=

Taluka of East Khandesh District, Bombay, 
lying between 20 degree 33' and 20degree 55' N. and 75 degree32' and 76 degree 1' E., with 
an area of 527 square miles. It contains two towns, Jamner (popula- 
tion, 6,457), the head-quarters, and Shendurni (6,423); and 155 
villages. The population in 1901 was 91,739, compared with 87,230 
in 1891. The average density, 174 persons per square mile, is above 
the District average. The demand for land revenue in 1903-4 was 
2.4 lakhs, and for cesses Rs. 17,000. Most of the tdluka consists of 
a succession of rises and dips, with streams the banks of which are 
fringed with babul groves. In the north and south-east low straggling 
hills covered with young teak rise out of the plain. There is a plentiful 
and constant supply of water. On the whole, the climate is healthy, 
but at the close of the rains fever and ague prevail. The chief streams 
are the Vaghur, with its tributaries the Kag and Sur, the Harki and 
Sonij. Most of these streams rise in the Satmala hills. There are 
also 1,950 wells. Generally speaking, the soil is poor. There is black 
loam in the valleys, and on the plateaux a rich brownish mould called 
kali munjal.
