CHAPTER - III

PROFILE OF INDUSTRIES IN

MAHARASHTRA STATE

3.1. Introduction:

Chapter third deals with the overall industrial profile of Maharashtra state.

It gives the details about the total industries, their products, geographical,

employment and industrial growth of Maharashtra state in detail.

The Maharashtra state is situated in India, and the India is unity of all

states. The word ‘India’ is explained in constitution of India in first article that,

‘India that is a Bharat’.(1)

The word ‘Maharashtra’ has derived from Maharattha. Next philosophy is

‘The Mahars have often been considered as the original inhabitants of what is

now the Indian state of Maharashtra and, according to Shridhar Venkatesh

Ketkar, a historian of the region, the state's name derives from theirs (Maharance

raṣṭra means land of the Mahars)’.(2)

As per the statement of Jyotiba Phule in his book Gulamgiri, ‘Mahars

were great warriors and against to Brahmin; they are Mahaari so the name

Maharashtra has come from Mahar-ari’. (3)

“ Now Maharashtra may mean the country of Mahars, a trible still known

as the province though in degraded position, and still numerous thought the

Maratha country that ‘whenever there is a village, there is the Maharwada’ the

Mahars mentioned by Cognomen which they still bear that of ‘Parwar’ by

Ptolemy in the second century of Christai Era, and in his days they were evidently

a people of distinct Geographical recognition with the forest and mountain tribes

on our neighborhood, still wholly or partially beyond the pace of Hinduism; they

may me supposed to be people, originally speaking a Turanian language in

70

Maratha country, who were conquered and kept in the state of subjection by the

Arryas, who however soon because so predominated in the country”.(4)

“The Mahars themselves have a tradition that their first king was Naga.

This may be a folk memory of Naga dynasty which once held sway over what is

now known is Maharashtra”.(5)

Maharashtra is a land characterized by the unique world heritage like the

caves of Buddha and Jain. Painting from the Ajanta Caves in the suburb of

Aurangabad, created in the sixth century is the world famous. The Nasik

Gazetteer states that in 246 BC Maharashtra is mentioned as one of the places to

which Mauryan emperor Ashoka sent an embassy; Maharashtra is recorded in a

Chalukyan inscription as have three provinces and 99,000 villages. The

description of Maharashtra is recorded by Chinese traveler, Hiuen-Tsang. The

name of Maharashtra also appeared in the 7th century. In 90 AD Vedishri, son of

the Satavahana king, Satakarni, the "Lord of Dakshinapatha, wielder of the

unchecked wheel of Sovereignty", made Junnar, thirty miles north of Pune, the

capital of his kingdom.The land of Maharashtra was also ruled by Kharavela,

Western Satraps, Gupta Empire, Gurjara-Pratihara, Vakataka, Kadambas,

Chalukya Empire, Rashtrakuta Dynasty, and Western Chalukya before Yadava

rule In the early 14th century the Yadava dynasty, which ruled most of present-day

Maharashtra, was overthrown by the Delhi Sultanate ruler, Ala-ud-din Khilji.

Then Muhammad bin Tughluq occupied some parts of the Deccan, and he shifted

capital from Delhi to Daulatabad in Maharashtra. He ruled this region up to 1347,

later the local Bahmani Sultanate of Gulbarga took over this region under his

control for next 150 years. Bahmani Sultanate was ended. And the religion of

Bahamani Sultanate was run up to 1518. Later Land of Maharashtra was divided

into some regions that were Nizamshah of Ahmednagar, Adilshah of Bijapur,

Qutubshah of Golkonda, Bidarshah of Bidar and Imadshah of Berar. Thay were

known as five Deccan Sultananets. They often fought amongst each other and

they decisively defeated the Vijayanagara Empire of the south in 1565. Even the

71

present area of Mumbai was ruled by Sultanate of Gujarat before it was captured

by Portugal in 1535 and Faruqidynasty ruled Khandesh region between 1382 and

1601 before Mughal annexation. Malik Ambar was the regent of the Nizamshahi

dynasty of Ahmednagar from 1607 to 1626. During the said period he increased

the strength and power of Murtaza Nizam Shah and increased a large army. Malik

Ambar is said to be one of the proponent of Guerilla warfare in the Deccan

region. Malik Ambar assisted Shah Jahan wrestle power in Delhi from his

stepmother, Nur Jahan, who had ambitions of seating her son-in-law on the

throne.(6)

Maharashtra was the part of the Bombay Presidency upto 1909 By the

early 17th century, Shahaji Bhosale, an ambitious local general in the service of

the Mughals and Adil Shah of Bijapur, attempted to establish his independent

rule. Shahaji Bhosale’s Shivaji succeeded in establishing Maratha Empire. Shivaji

established organization of young boys called ‘Mavalas’. Later on Shivaji’s

region was expanded by Bhosle of Nagpur, Gaikwad of Baroda, Holkar of Indore,

Scindia of Gwalior and Peshwas (prime ministers). Marathas and Mughals were

arch enemies of one another. The Marathas defeated the Mughals, and conquered

large territories in Northern and Central parts of the Indian subcontinent. After the

defeat at the Third Battle of Panipat in 1761, the Maratha restored their

supremacy and ruled central and north India including New Delhi till the end of

the eighteenth century.(7)

Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, a king mass responsibility is known as hero of

Mawala. He ruled Maharashtra. He was also known great hero of Mahrashtra.

During the region of Shivaji Maharaj Bramhin Peshwai was trying to capture

Maharashtra. Brahmin Peshwa succeeded to capture Maharashtra. Brahmin

peshava ruled Maharashtra. Peshva followed rule and regulation of Manusmruti

that was religious book of Brahmin. Brahmin Kshatriya, Vaishya and Shudras and

atishudras (touchable and non-touchable shudras) these were varn system.

‘Shudras and atishudras were made slave of upper three varn which were

72

Brahmin, Kshtriya and Vaishya and their population was 3%, 6%, 6%

respectively. Their comprising percentage is 15% and the population of Shudras

and atishudras was 85%. These people were ruled by Brahmin as slaves. ‘British

government destroyed Peshava Brahmin with 500 solders. It was a battle between

500 shudras and atishudras verses 28,000 Peshva solders. With this battle British

government won and occupied Maharashtra in 1st January 1818 in Bhima

koregaon Pune. The Third Anglo-Maratha war (1817–1818) led to the end of the

Maratha Empire and East India Company ruled the country from 1819 to 1857. (8)

East India Company was established in 1600 by British emperor. They

governed the region as part of the Bombay Presidency, which spanned an area

from Karachi in Pakistan to northern Deccan. A number of the Maratha states

persisted as princely states, retaining autonomy in return for acknowledging

British suzerainty. The largest princely states in the territory of present-day

Maharashtra were Nagpur, Satara and Kolhapur. Satara was annexed to Bombay

Presidency in 1848, and Nagpur was annexed in 1853 to become Nagpur

Province, later part of the Central Provinces. Berar, which had been part of the

Nizam of Hyderabad's kingdom, was occupied by the British in 1853 and annexed

to the Central Provinces in 1903. However, a large part of present-day

Maharashtra, called Marathwada, remained part of the Nizam's Hyderabad State

throughout the British reign. Marathwada region was under the Nizam. The

British rule was marked by social reforms and an improvement in infrastructure

as well as revolts due to their discriminatory policies. At the beginning of the 20th

century, the struggle for participation in British administration was major issue.

The leaders of India were demanding equal participation in all sectors. They

readied that the Traditional laws should be kept in states. It was one of the

important demands of so called philosopher and political leaders. Later it turned

into independence movement. Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Vinayak Damodar Savarkar

and the moderates like Justice Mahadev Govind Ranade, Pheroze shah Mehta and

Dadabhai Nowrojee, Gopal Krishna Gokhale etc. were fighting Britishers. ‘Quit

73

India’ was a movement which called by Mohandas karamchand Gandhi in 1942.

It was nonviolent movement that too British government attacked on activist of

‘Quit India’ Movement. The ultimatum to the British to "Quit India" was given in

Mumbai, and culminated in the transfer of power and the independence of India

in 1947. B. G. Kher was the first Chief Minister of the Bombay Presidency. (9)

After India's independence in 1947 the operation of Hyderabad was done

in 1948 by using military force, it was called Operation Polo. After getting total

independence, lot of regions were separated, the regions and states were

integrated into the Union of India, like the Deccan States, including Kolhapur

were integrated into Bombay State, which was created from the former Bombay

Presidency in 1950. In 1956, the States Reorganization Act reorganized the Indian

states on linguistic lines, and Bombay Presidency State was enlarged by the

addition of the predominantly Marathi-speaking regions of Marathwada

(Aurangabad Division) from erstwhile Hyderabad state and Vidarbha region from

the Central Provinces and Berar. Also, southernmost part of Bombay State was

ceded to Mysore one. From 1954–1955 the people of Maharashtra strongly

protested against bilingual Bombay state and Samyukta Maharashtra Samiti under

the leadership of Dr. Gopalrao Khedkar was formed. Mahagujarat Movement was

also started for separate Gujarat state. Dr. Gopalrao Khedkar, S.M. Joshi, S.A.

Dange, P.K. Atre and other leaders fought for a separate state of Maharashtra with

Mumbai as its capital. Maharashtra and Gujarat these two states were together.

For better administration Maharashtra was separate from Gujarat on 1 May 1960.

This day is known as ‘Maharashtra Day’.

ancient Ajanta and Ellora caves. Nagpur, popular for producing some of India's

finest oranges, is known for its temples. Ratnagiri is famous for its delicious

mangoes, besides the famous coast.

Geographically and culturally Maharashtra is divided into five regions.

The Vidarbha region includes the eastern districts such as Nagpur, Chandrapur,

Wardha, Amravati, Akola, Buldhana, and Yavatmal. The area here is forested

with many wildlife sanctuaries. Central districts such as Aurangabad, Latur,

Nanded, Jalna, Beed, Osmanabad, Hingoli are part of Marathawada region. Some

districts such as Mumbai City, Raigad, Ratnagiri, Thane, and Sindhudurg are part

of the Konkan region. Districts such as Nasik, Jalgaon, Ahmednagar, Dhule, and

Nandurbar are part of the Khandesh region. Pune, Satara, Kohlapur, Sangli, and

Solapur come in the (Desh) western region.

The vegetation of the state mainly includes open scrub jungles which form

the most important feature of the Deccan region. The forests region of

Maharashtra comprises 17% of the total area which is present in the eastern part

of the state and the Sahyadri range. There is diversity in the vegetation of the state

mainly due to its climatic and topographical variations. Evergreen deciduous type

of forests dominates the landscape. The main rivers of the state include Krishna,

Bhima, Godavari, Tapi-Purna and Wardha-Wainganga. The Western ghats form

the drainage area for most of the rivers flowing in the coastal region. The climate

of Maharashtra is of a tropical monsoon type with a searing heat in the summer

seasons and cold during winter. The monsoons have varied influence over

83

different regions, causing heavy rain at some places and mild rainfall in the rest

ones.

3.7. Border Dispute:

Maharashtra has a border dispute with the neighboring state of Karnataka

over the district of Belgaum, Karwar and Nipani. Belgaum was incorporated into

the newly formed Mysore state (now Karnataka) with the passage of the States

Reorganization Act (1956), which reorganized India's states on linguistic lines.

Due to three-fourths of the total population speaking Marathi, Maharashtra has

continued to claim for the district. While the case is awaiting a verdict in the

Supreme Court of India, the Government of Maharashtra wants the Central

government to declare Belgaum and adjoining 865 villages as a Union Territory.

Karnataka has rejected the move, claiming that Marathis in Karnataka are safe

and lived in harmony.

industrial zones and its status are source to know the progress of industrial

development in different regions. Information is created in table format as per

under.

Industrial progress of Maharashtra state with the help of liberalization,

privatization and globalization is major issue of the study. Some criteria or

parameters are needed to find out overall progress of Maharashtra state. Some of

criteria are growth of number of industries, investment, employments, export-

import business, capturing foreign market etc. available data are collected. There

was certain limitation to collect all data which was related to criteria. Only

Maharashtra state in the era of liberalization, privatization and globalization.

All following tables are divided into three categories i. e. number of units,

investment and employment. There are six industrial regions and each region is

having same three categories. All integrated data of number of units, investment

and number of employments are available up to 2006. After 2006, by furcation of

data has been made by government institution. Due to this, year 2006 has been

made base year.

Table number 3.10 deals with total number of micro, small and medium

units in Kokan region. 50,127 number of micro, small and medium units are in

Kokan industrial region. Past year of 2006, there were 18,972 numbers of micro,

small and medium industries and it calculated up to 2006. From next year, it has

been calculated district wise. There were 1783 MSM units in 2007. It increased in

small number in per year. 7563 number of MSM units was in existing in the year

of 2013. The percentage increased from 3.56% to 15.08%.

Above table shows that, there are imbalances about number of units.

Mumbai is having 38.45 % industries. 48.46% industries are in Thane district,

Raigad district is having 6.84 % industries, and Ratnagiri and Sindhudurg districts

are having 3.47% and 2.78% industries. Raigad, Ratnagiri and Sindudurg districts

are not having sufficient number of micro, small and medium industries. This

100

district seems backward in terms of number of industries. The causes behind this

are marketing problem, financing problem, strategic lacuna etc.

The district wise number of industries in Kokan region are denoting the lot

of imbalance in number of units. Mumbai and Thane districts created good

number of industries. These districts are more populist area, therefore these

districts are situated at bank of sea (Arbisamudra). There is sea way, good

national highway, good transport facilities. Due to all this, industrialists are

interested in Mumbai and Thane.

Investment are major component to find out industrial status. Following

table number 3.9 denotes the industrial investment in Kokan region. It is given

district wise investment.

There are up and down position in some year therefore districts wise number of

units are not equal to one another. Pune and Kolhapur are having good

atmosphere to industries. That’s why number of industries is increasing. But

remaining three districts are very remote from becoming industrial district. They

have not sufficient atmosphere to increase number of industries.

Table number 3.30 deals with industrial region wise number of employees

in Maharashtra state. There were 25, 28,808 number of employees in Maharashtra

state during the given period. 14,22,12 number of employees were in 2007-08.

Next year in 2008-09 it increased up to 18,08,029. But in 2009-10, it decreased up

to 1,58,603. Number of employees in 2010-11 was 2, 03,124. Next year it was

125

increased by 1.82% (44521) in 2011-12. The number of employees was decreased

and come up to 2,23,187, in the year 2013-14, there were 2,74,103 number of

employees.

Here comparative study has been made. Amravati region is having very

small number of employees compare to other industrial region. It is having only

3.60% number of employees. Pune industrial region provide 35% employment.

Kokan industrial region has created 32.16% employment. Nagpur region created

12.32% employment. Nasik and Aurangabad region have created 10.88% and

6.04% employment respectively during the period responding.

It shows unequal portion of number of employees. Aurangabad and

Amravati region has given poor performance in terms of employment. It doesn’t

denote suitable progress of Maharashtra state.

A criterion of employment is one of the jobs of government. It is released

welfare states. Industries create employment so progress of Maharashtra has been

fined out with the help of these criteria. 2006-07 this year is taken as base year

due to same limitation of data celery. Following table number 3.28 highlighted

over all industrial employments.

Conclusions:

In this chapter, over all status of Maharashtra state has been explored in

respect of industrial background of Maharashtra. Right from its establishment

Maharashtra is being known as industrial state in India. Industrial segments are

created along with industrial zones. All data regarding profile of Maharashtra has

been elaborated. The chapter helps to analyze the status of Maharashtra to

evaluate the Industrial position of the state. Industries are backbone of socio

economic development of human being. Six regional zones of industries show the

status and direction of regional imbalances. By and large, the end chapter presents

the profile of socio economic development of Maharashtra.

Maharashtra state and its industrial profile shows the performance of ten

years. Maharashtra state is most populist state of India. Literacy rate of

Maharashtra is 82.91% in 2011. Now it will be increased. . so it has large market

and most literate people. There are six administrative region and industrial region

also in Maharashtra state. Due to industrial region, imbalances can be reduced.

Maharashtra is India's leading industrial state. It has contributed 15% of national

industrial output and over 40% of India's national revenue. 64 % of the people are

employed in agriculture and allied activities. Almost 46% of the Gross State

Domestic Product is contributed by industry.

Share of social group of people in industries are not equal to their portion.

There should be equal portion of social group of people. Otherwise it will create

lot of disparities among the society. Industrial regio0ns are created to reduce

regional imbalance. But it does not see balanced performance. Lot of investment

is being invested in particular district and particular region. It shows that

Maharashtra state do not have sustainable development of industrial sectors. This

problem is facing by Maharashtra state from 1947. Verna system is as it is in the

liberalization privatization and globalization. Lot of scope of LPG are being

sacked from Shudras ( SCs, STs, and OBCs) due to lack of money, power, land

and new economic policy of 1991 of linearization privatization and globalization.

127

Unequal distribution of resources which make the development of mankind had

been made by the vaidik-bramhin religious literatures. This Varna system had

been run near about three thousand year. This system had created lot of disparity.

There was no share in resources of human development before independent; some

opportunities are getting through Indian constitution to the 85% people of India

during the period of 1947 to 1991. Now after 1991, due to policy of liberalization,

privatization and globalization, all resources of human development are being

generated to particular group of people e. i. Brahmin, Kshatria and Vaishya. This

called DWIZ by religious literature.

Sufficient numbers of industries are present strong position in industry. In

Maharashtra state, the industries are growing very slowly in the era of

liberalization, privatization and globalization. Investment is little bit good. But

there is lot of inequality among the industrial region in terms of investment. There

is unequal portion in number of employees. Aurangabad and Amravati region has

given poor performance in terms of employment. Nasik, Pune, Kokan industrial

region gave good performance in employment. . Number of units, investment in

industries and employment by the industries are main parameters to know the

status of socio economic status of Maharashtra. All these are elaborated by the

chapter.
