EDITORS COMMENTS
Fort Purandhar, also known as Purandar Fort, is a historic hill fort located near the city of Poona (Pune) in Maharashtra, India. This photograph, taken circa 1910, captures the grandeur and imposing presence of the fort during the British colonial era. The fort, built on a hilltop, offers a breathtaking view of the surrounding lush greenery and trees. During the 1910s, Fort Purandhar was under British rule, and the fortifications were maintained by the colonial administration. The British saw the strategic importance of the fort, which had been a significant military stronghold for centuries, and used it to secure their control over the region. The photograph shows the fort's impressive stone walls, which have withstood the test of time and weather. The fort's architecture is a blend of Maratha and Islamic styles, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the region. The trees and foliage surrounding the fort add to its natural beauty, making it a popular tourist destination even today. Fort Purandhar has a fascinating history, dating back to the 16th century when it was built by the Maratha ruler Maloji Raje Bhonsle. It has been the site of many battles and conflicts over the centuries, including the Anglo-Maratha Wars. Despite its tumultuous past, the fort continues to stand tall, a testament to the resilience and strength of its people and the enduring beauty of the natural surroundings. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when colonialism shaped the course of Indian history. It is a reminder of the rich cultural and historical heritage that India possesses, and the importance of preserving it for future generations.
