Maharashtra, located in the western region of India, is one of the most economically developed states in the country, driven by industries such as manufacturing, services, and agriculture. Mumbai, the capital of Maharashtra, is not only the financial capital of India but also a global business hub. It is home to the Bombay Stock Exchange, multinational companies, and Bollywood, the heart of the Indian film industry.
Maharashtra boasts a rich historical and cultural heritage, with ancient forts, caves, temples, and monuments that showcase its diverse history. The region has been home to the Kolis, the Marathas, and numerous Islamic rulers of the Deccan. The Maratha Empire, under leaders like Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, played a significant role in shaping the region’s culture and politics and is often cited when talking about the ‘region’s greatness’.
The state was originally part of the Bombay Presidency under British rule. Thirteen years after India’s independence, Maharashtra was formed in 1960 following the bifurcation of the Bombay State, based on linguistic lines, to accommodate the Marathi-speaking population. The demand for a separate state led to the historic Samyukta Maharashtra Movement, which culminated in the formation of Maharashtra and the incorporation of Mumbai as its capital.
Maharashtra is also known for its agricultural production, including crops like sugarcane, onions, tomatoes, rice, and cotton. It is one of the leading producers of sugar in India. However, parts of the state, especially Vidarbha, remain drought-prone and economically underdeveloped. Maharashtra’s infrastructure is highly advanced, with one of the largest road and railway networks in India and key ports that facilitate efficient trade.
Politically, Maharashtra has a diverse multi-party system. The Shiv Sena, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), and Indian National Congress (INC) have been dominant players, with the BJP gaining ground in the recent past. In recent years, the state has experienced political instability, most notably after the 2019 Maharashtra Legislative Assembly elections where both regional parties split into twos.
Thanks and salute to the Service Commission which select him.
It shows that there is no value for honest people the transfer of bureaucrat is best example of it. The honest officer was transferred because of currupt leaders and dirty politics.
What example we want to set before young generation. This type of actions are demotivating and ever condemned.

Common pepole is also not supporting that type officer because sabhi Ko apna kam pura hona chahiye
Mr. Mundhe is very able, honest and tough IAS officer. All political parties including BJP do not like him because he does not succumb to any pressures. It was expcted that Mr. Fadanvis will support honest and able officers but he has proven himself at par with any mediocre political leader. BJP is losing the credibility very fast and is on the road map of power hungry party.
I thank state government for transferring such officer to my native place Nashik. This is the only officer which inspires me to be IAS officer and source of motivation to pass UPSC.
Anyone who is sincere and hardworking is to be appreciated and not those who dance to the tune of politicans.
My sincere wishes to Mundhe sir on his endeavors. May you live long enough to continue to serve.
Our country needs everywhere such type of persons ! But we are not so lucky .
Tukaramji Mundhe will see entire maharashtra early.
Being non corrupt has hard returns.
Nashik City wants Honble Shri.Tuka ram Munde Sir
No one like this type of beaurocrat including normal people too. As no one stand in her support that’s proof no one like. All are corrupted including normal people and that’s why no one wants that type of beaurocrat. SABKO LE DE KE KAM KARNEWALE OFFICER ACHHE LAGTE HAI.
We the people want honest officials so long as they don’t inconvenience us. When other defenceless poor people are affected we praise him to sky. When the broom sweep reaches our territory we cry foul. Then the officer suddenly lacks communication skills, is high handed and is disrespectful of “people’s representative” . Don’t know Which people the report refers to.
