Nāgpur pronunciation (help·info) Marathi: नागपरू is a city and winter capital of the state of Maharashtra, the largest city in central India and third largest city in Maharashtra after Mumbai and Pune. With a population of 4,653,171 (2011), Nagpur UA is the 9th largest urban conglomeration in India,[4] In addition to being the seat of annual winter session of Maharashtra state assembly "Vidhan Sabha", Nagpur is also a major commercial and political center of the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra, and is also famous throughout the country as "Orange City" for being a major trade center of oranges that are cultivated in the region.[5] In addition, the city also derives political importance from being the headquarters for the Hindu nationalist organisation RSS and an important location for the Dalit Buddhist movement. Nagpur lies precisely at the center of the country with the Zero Mile Marker indicating the geographical center of India.[6] The city was founded by the Gonds but later became part of the Maratha Empire under the Bhonsles. The British East India Company took over Nagpur in the 19th century and made it the capital of the Central Provinces and Berar. After the first reorganisation of states, the city lost its capital status but according to the informal "Nagpur Pact" between political leaders it was made the second capital of Maharashtra.

[edit] Etymology
Nag River provides the etymology to the name 'Nagpur' according to a theory The Nag River, a tributary of the Kanhan River, flows in a serpentine path and is therefore named "Nag", the Marathi word for Cobra. According to Dr. B. R. Ambedkar people of Nagpur belong to nag dynasty who were followers of the Buddha. And hence, the river and city is named as Nagpur. While others says that the river flows through the old city of Nagpur and hence the city is named after this river. "Pur" is common suffix given to cities, villages and towns across India, and is often simply translated "city".[7] The seal of Nagpur Municipal Corporation depicts a cobra in the water of a river.
[edit] History Main article: History of Nagpur
Map of Nagpur district with major towns and rivers. Human existence around present day Nagpur city can be traced back 3000 years to 8th century BC. Mehir burial sites at Drugdhamna (near Mhada colony) indicate megalithic culture existed
around Nagpur and is still followed in present times.[8] The first reference to the name Nagpur is found in a 10th century copper-plate inscription discovered at Devali in the neighbouring Wardha district. The inscription is a record of grant of a village situated in the visaya (district) of Nagpura-Nandivardhana during time of Rastrakuta king Krsna III in the Saka year 862 (940 CE).[9] Towards the end of third century King Vindhyasakti is known to have ruled the Nagpur region. In the 4th century Vakataka Dynasty ruled over the Nagpur region and surrounding areas and had good relations with the Gupta Empire. The Vakataka king Prithvisena I moved his capital to Nagardhan (ancient name Nandivardhana), located at 28 kilometres (17 mi) from Nagpur.[10] After the Vakatakas, the region came under the rule of the Hindu kingdoms of the Badami Chalukyas, the Rashtrakutas, and finally the Yadavas. In AD 1296 Allauddin Khilji invaded the Yadava Kingdom after capturing Deogiri, after which the Tughlaq Dynasty came to power in 1317. In the 17th century, the Mughal Empire conquered the region; however, regional administration was carried out by the Gond kingdom of Deogarh-Nagpur in the Chhindwara district of the modern-day state of Madhya Pradesh. Recent history ascribes the founding of Nagpur to Bakht Buland, a prince of the kingdom of Deogarh-Nagpur. The next Raja of Deogarh was Chand Sultan, who resided principally in the country below the hills, fixing his capital at Nagpur which he made a walled town. On Chand Sultan's death in 1739, Wali Shah, an illegitimate son of Bakht Buland, usurped the throne and Chand Sultan's widow invoked the aid of the Maratha leader Raghuji Bhonsle of Berar in the interest of her sons Akbar Shah and Burhan Shah. The usurper was put to death and the rightful heirs placed on the throne. After 1743, a series of Maratha rulers came to power, starting with Raghoji Bhonsle, who conquered the territories of Deogarh, Chanda and Chhattisgarh by 1751. In 1803 Raghoji II joined the Peshwas against the British in the Second Anglo-Maratha War, but the British prevailed. After Raghoji II's death in 1816, his son Parsaji was deposed and murdered by Mudhoji II. Despite the fact that he had entered into a treaty with the British in the same year, Mudhoji joined the Peshwa in the Third Anglo-Maratha War in 1817 against the British, but suffered a defeat at Sitabuldi in present-day Nagpur city. The fierce battle was a turning point as it laid the foundations of the downfall of the Bhonsles and paved the way for the British acquisition of Nagpur city.[11] Mudhoji was deposed after a temporary restoration to the throne, after which the British placed Raghoji III the grandchild of Raghoji II, on the throne. During the rule of Raghoji III (which lasted till 1840), the region was administered by a British resident. In 1853, the British took control of Nagpur after Raghoji III died without leaving an heir.
Central Provinces and Berar, 1903. Princely states are shown in yellow. From 1853 to 1861, the Nagpur Province (which consisted of the present Nagpur region, Chhindwara, and Chhatisgarh) became part of the Central Provinces and Berar and came under the administration of a commissioner under the British central government, with Nagpur as its capital. Berar was added in 1903. Tata group started the country's first textile mill at Nagpur,[12] formally known as Central India Spinning and Weaving Company Ltd. The company was popularly known as "Empress Mills" as it was inaugurated on 1 January 1877, the day queen Victoria was proclaimed Empress of India. The Non-cooperation movement was launched in the Nagpur session of 1920. The city witnessed a Hindu–Muslim riot in 1923 which had profound impact on K. B. Hedgewar,[13] who in 1925 founded the RSS, a Hindu nationalist organisation in Nagpur with an idea of creating a Hindu nation. After the 1927 Nagpur riots RSS gained further popularity in Nagpur and the organisation grew nationwide. After Indian Independence in 1947, Central Provinces and Berar became a province of India, and in 1950 became the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, again with Nagpur as its capital. However when the Indian states were reorganised along linguistic lines in 1956, the Nagpur region and Berar were transferred to Bombay state, which in 1960 was split between the states of Maharashtra and Gujarat. At a formal public ceremony on 14 October 1956 in Nagpur B. R. Ambedkar along with his supporters converted to Buddhism starting Dalit Buddhist movement which is still active. In 1994, the city witnessed its most violent day in modern times in form of Gowari stampede deaths. Nagpur completed 300 years of establishment in the year 2002. A big celebration was organised to mark the event. Also see: Nagpur state

and various 3 star hotels like
Hotel Center Point Airport Centre Point Tuli International Tuli Imperial
apart from the above, many expensive Hotels are located on southern Wardha Road. Another feather in the cap for the city is that famous "Taj Hotel" in Empress City and Hotel Radisson on Wardha Road are coming up in immediate future as construction work has begun in full swing. Nagpur has witnesses a sudden boom in this sector owing to the prestigious "MIHAN project" and "Special Economic Zone" [SEZ] in Southern suburbs of Nagpur City. Currently most of the Hotels generate revenue during Winter Session of Maharashtra State Assembly as politicians from all over the state and journalists, party supporters come here. Apart from that, International Cricket Matches at VCA Stadium attract crowds from all over Central India increasing customers for these Hotels.

Chairman's Message Board Of Trustee Administrative
History
PREFACE NAGPUR, the second capital of Maharashtra and the second greenest City of IndIa. popularly known as "Orange City" IS spread across an area of 217 sq.kms. It is an Important rail road Junction and anupcoming industrial hu~buzzing with hectic commercial activities. Historically the City of Nagpur was the capital of the erstwhile Central Provinces and Berar The need for planned development of the city was felt at that time,as the existing Municipal CommIttee was not equipped to undertake such a gigantic task nor did it have the ability to generate the necessary funds.
With this view. The Nagpur Improvement Trust was formed by enacting Nagpur Improvement Trust Act, 1936. Actual functioning of Nagpur Improvement Trust started in the year 1937. The goal set before the Nagpur Improvement Trust was,to develop new areas within the city of NagpuJto cater to the needs of the growing population. For proper development of the city. the Nagpur Improve:;nent Trust has powers to form vanous types of schemes. For Implementation of these ifiChemes~;: powers of Planning Authority as well as Development Authority are vested with the Nagpur Improvement Trust. During the last 6 decades of its existence, Nagpur Improvement Trust has transformed the sleepy old city Into an emergIng Metro by executing 45 development schemes whereby about 55% area of Nagpur City has beer! developed Thesn schemes and projects undertaken by NIT, have given a face-lift to this historic City. The implemented projects have Impr'oved the urban environment of the City and upgraded the existing Infrastructure. adequate enough to meet the growing demands of rapid urbanlsatlon and Increasing population. Now the State Govt. of Maharashtra vide G.R. dated 24.12.2002 has extended the jurisdIction of NIT beyond the Municipal limits of Nagpur over an area that constitutes the Metro Region thereby widening the scope of its work. Because of the small size of the managing body of Nagpur Improvement Trust, the decIsion-making IS speedy and effective which is the hallmark of any dynamic institution. Unlike other InstitutionS managed by the State Government, NIT does not receive any grant whatsoever ,from the State Government As a result, there is no financial burden on the State Government on account of NIT. Over the last six decades. the City has got the much needed face lift owIng to the all round eHorts put In by Nagpur Improvement Trust. This information book is a humble attempt on our part to bnef the readers about various schemes that have been successfully planned and executed by NIT so far.
NIT - The Scope As the Planning Authority and Development Authority for the entire Nagpur Metropolitan region, NIT's jurisdiction touches all aspects of the city's development. NIT is the sole authority for land Planning and land Acquisition and is responsible for infrastructure such as roads. streetlights. drainage & sewerage systems and public utilities to meet the diverse needs of the citizens. Working: As per the Provisions of Section 27 of the act, NIT is empowered to plan and execute various development schemes. An improvement scheme shall be one of the following types or may combine any two or more of such types, or any of the special features there of, that is to say, (a) a general improvement scheme; (b) a re-building scheme; (c) a re-housing scheme; (d) a street scheme; (e) a deferred street scheme; (f) a development scheme;
(g) a housing accommodation scheme; [(h) a future expansion or improvement scheme] ; [(i) a drainage or drainage including sewage disposal scheme.] Thus the Nagpur Improvement Trust has played a major role in changing the visage of the city. By playing a crucial role in area planning and development. the NIT primarily undertook to plan and execute development of various pockets of the city. It has been a relentless forging ahead on this front single-handedly for the NIT for the past 65 years. Section 57 of the act provides for the handing over of layouts developed by NIT to NMC for maintenance. Section 57 is reproduced below for quick reference: 57 Whenever the Trust is satisfied a) that any street laid out or altered by the Trust has been duly levelled, paved, metalled, flagged, channelled, sewered, and drained in the manner provided in the plans sanctioned by the (State)Government under this act, and b) that such lamps, lamp-posts, and the other apparatus as the Trust may consider necessary for the lighting of such streets have been so provided, and c) that water and the other sanitary conveniences ordinarily provided (in the city) have been duly provided in such street. the Trust may call upon (the Corporation) by a notice in writing, to take over the management of such street within a period specified in the notice, which shall not be less than one month and, on -receiving such a notice (the Corporation) shall, subject to the provisions of subsection (3) by a ,i written notice affixed in some conspicuous place in such street, declare the street to be a public street; and the street shall thereupon vest in (the Corporation) and shall henceforth be maintained, kept in repair, lighted and cleansed by (the Corporation); 2) When any open space for purposes of ventilation or recreation has been provided by the Trust in executing any improvement scheme, it shall on completion, be transferred to (the Corporation) by a resolution of the Trust and shall thereupon vest in, and be maintained at the expenses of (the Corporation); provided that (the Corporation) may require the Trust, before any such open space is so transferred, to enclose, level, drain and layout such space and provide footpaths therein. 3) I f any difference of opinion arises between the Trust and (the Corporation) in respect of any matter referred to in the foregoing provisions of this sections, the matter shall be referred to the (State) Government, whose decision shall be final. 4) The (State) Government may resume the management of any street or open space (..... ) vested in the Trust under clause (b) of sub-section of section 45.
The Constitution of NIT As the end result of the sustained endeavour of the NIT is to better the life of the denizens. its Constitution too aims at making it more people-oriented. As per the provisions of the NIT Act. the management and working of NIT has been entrusted to a Board of Trustees. A senior IAS Officer of the rank of Secretary or Commissioner heads the Board as its Chairman. This Chairman is a State-Government appointee. Other Members of the board are: 1. Commissioner, NMC. Nagpur Ex-officio Member. 2. Deputy Director. Town Planning. Nagpur Division Ex-officio Member.
3. Chairman. Standing Committee. NMC Ex-officio Member. 4. A Corporator elected by NMC. .5. A member of the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly who is a resident of Nagpur City. 6. Three members appointed by the State Government.
Thus it can be seen that the provisions ensure that there is adequate participation of people's representatives in the work of the NIT. The Constitution has made the NIT accountable to the public at different levels. The appointment of three NMC members to the Board is yet another progressive step towards this.
Working of NIT : As per the provisions of the land Acquisition Act, 1894 the acquisition and disposal of land by agreement or compulsory acquisition is carried out by NIT in the following manner. NIT outlines schemes and sends the same to the Government for their sanction. On obtaining the required sanction, NIT acquires the land as per the identified areas to execute development work in the layouts as per the scheme chalked out. The plots in the developed layouts are then sold by NIT by auction. Revenue generated through the auctioning of plots in the developed layouts constitutes NIT's major source of funds which are utilised for carrying out various activities. Part of the acquired land is retained by NIT and developed for public utility, open spaces, civic amenities etc. Public utility land areas are also allotted to public -institutions by NIT on concessional rates thereby contributing to social welfare. Community Welfare NIT also distributes significant part of the acquired land to economically weaker sections of society at nominal rates. 20,000 plots have been distributed so far under NIT's scheme of land Distribution for community welfare. Since its inception, NIT has functioned as the backbone of city planning. Due to the land Planning and Development function effectively carried out by NIT over the past 6 decades, Nagpur has emerged as one of the most well planned cities. Nagpur is probably the only city in India with such well developed layout structure and open spaces. NIT has also undertaken road widening scheme for the city for which NIT has spent large amount from its own funds for betterment of prime roads such as C.A.Road, Panchpaoli Road [Phase I & II), Ganga Jamuna Road, Itwari Station Road and several other roads passing through remote areas have also been revived under NIT's public oriented schemes.

HOSPITAL-IGGMC
Modernization & Renovation Of Indira Gandhi Medical College & Hospital, Nagpur Indira Gandhi Medical College & Hospital was originally known as “Mayo Hospital” was established in the year 1862. It was a landmark & provided for Medical services, which were the best in its time. In 1914 to further the cause of Medical Education the “ Robertson Medical School” was opened In 1967 ”Corporation Medical College” was establish which was transferred to the Government in 1981 and was renamed as Indira Gandhi Medical College. Now it has a identity as “Indira Gandhi Government Medical College & Hospital”. Most of the original structures continued and are still used to impart Medical Education even though they are now in a pathetic structural state and offer no qualitative elements as is required for education. The overall environment is depressing & defeats the very essence of education, as it inspires none. Faculty, staff & students who are in the noble profession of imparting Health education & service to overcome pain continue to suffer & bear the
pathetic & unhealthy built environment. So much so that it is hard to identify any part which can be restored thus overruling any possibility of restoration. One visit would highlight the poor & unhygienic condition, delinking of interrelated service, overcrowding, chaos, unplanned growth, etc. can only make one ponder with disbelief the state in which Modern Health Service & Education is being imparted. Though the student intake was increased to 100 from 60 in 1988, subsequent inspection by the medical Council of India (MCI) the issue and gave time for up gradation. Subsequent delays led them to issue a strong objection & final strictures for the same. The Government appointed the Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT) as a nodal agency vide GR dated 17.05.03 and handed over the paper possession of 42.5 acres of land. A MOU was signed between NIT & IGMC. Accordingly. NIT had to develop and build the total infrastructure by raising finance through the commercial potential of the land. However subsequent study & measurement showed that the total area available for development was 39.26 acres instead of 42,5 acres as was originally assumed. The 25 acre land required for the Medical Hospital & College could not be reduced due to norms of MCI of shortfall had to be absorbed in the commercial area, thus reducing its potential & subsequently a deficit of 60 crore plus was estimated. Many alternative possibilities were studied & one alternative was to overcome the deficit was to combine 5 acre of Ajni land with this proposal for commercial/residential exploitation. Finally the Hon Chief Minster who heads the cabinet Infrastructure Committee gave his approval during the meeting held on 24.11.06 The decisions were as following:-
1. BOT offers will be invited for construction of the total Hospital & College complex as per design of NIT. 2. BOT operator will be allowed to utilize commercial space to be built on 11.4 acres of land & additional 5 acre of Ajni land for Commercial /residential complex.
