Sangole was a prominent part of the [[Maratha Empire|Maratha dynasty]] under the [[List of Maratha dynasties and states|Ingoles]]. It is believed that Sangole as a town was established around the 14th or 15th century by six Ingoles. Babaji Lakhmoji Ingole & his five sons (6 Ingole's)have constructed a fort and situated town Sangole. The name of Sangole is derived from these six Ingoles (Saha Ingole) - Sangole. There is a historic fort inside Sangola town and later the Ingole's were awarded Deshmukhi of Paragane Sangole by Aadilshah of Bijapur. Still in many villages the Deshmukh families are residing - mainly - Sangole city, Deshmukh Vasti- Bamani, Jawala, Sonand. Ingole-Deshmukhs are now farmers holding lands in these villages. The main Ingole-Deshmukh family is residing at Sangole city and Pune. The great grand son of BabajiRaje, Dnyaneshwar Ingole-Deshmukh is residing in Pune. Dhangar's, [[Kolis]], Lingayat, [[Maratha clan system|Shahaannav Kuli Marathas- Ingole Deshmukhs]] and Yajurvedi Brahmins are believed to have set up some of the first communities in this region. The fort at Sangole was built, reportedly by Deshmukhs under Bijapur's Aadilshah king. It is believed that later the Deshmukh's left the Aadilshah of Bijapur and joined the forces of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Aadilshah had awarded Deshmukhi of 72 villages of paragane Sangole to Ingole Deshmukh's. The town later grew up around the fort was so prosperous that it was locally called the Golden Sangola or "Sonyache Sangola" (सोन्याचे सांगोले).{{citation needed|date=February 2017}}

Soon after settlement, due to the large availability of high-quality land, which produced many crops during [[Kharif crop|kharip season]], [[farming]] and [[dairy]] businesses flourished around the area, although at first, Sangole experienced low population density. This proved fortunate, as it was less severely impacted by such historical events as the [[Famine in India#Ancient.2C mediaeval and pre-colonial India|Durga Devi]] drought in the 14th century and the failure of the [[Yadava|Yadav kingdom]] at the hands of [[Alauddin Khalji]] in nearby [[Daulatabad, Maharashtra|Deogiri]]. In the 15th century, the Turkish Ali Adilshah visited the area and Muslims began to arrive in the city. Significant growth of the Muslim population happened between 1690 and 1702, when the surrounding area was camped by [[Aurangzeb]] and [[Mughal Empire|Moguls]].{{citation needed|date=February 2017}}

After the death of [[Afzal Khan (general)|Afzal Khan]], [[Shivaji Maharaj]] captured the entire region from [[Wai, Maharashtra|Wai]] to [[Kolhapur]]. [[Netaji Palkar]] is believed to have raided Sangole on 14 November 1659, but the land fort was again recaptured by Adishahi forces in 1663. In December 1665, Shivaji Maharaj and Mirza Jaisingh won the town from the Adilshah. Later Shivaji Raje again gifted the town to Ingole Deshmukh's; however in 1679, after the fall of the [[Bhupalgad]] fort, the area was transferred to the control of [[Dilerkhan Pathans]]. Seven months afterward, [[Hambirrao Mohite]] recaptured the town from the Moguls. After 1690, Sangole was under nominal control of the Moguls, because the entire area remained in the hands of Deshmukh's. Many major [[Maratha]] soldiers, such as [[Santaji Ghorpade]], Dhanaji Jadhav, Jagdale, and Moreshwar Pingale camped in this region when they carried out attacks on the Moguls between 1692 and 1703. The Ingole Deshmukh's supported the Maratha Sardars with their small fleet of Maratha mawala's.

In 1750, [[Balaji Bajirao]] was opposed by [[Yamaji Pant Shivdev]], a partisan of Tarabai, who threw himself into the Sangole fort and called for rebellion. [[Sadashivrao Bhau]], the cousin of Balaji Bajirao, and Ram Raja marched to Sangole to put down the rebellion. Yamaji's uprising was soon suppressed.

In 1802 the town and the fort was attacked and severely looted by [[Holkar|Holkar's Pathans]].

Sangole or (Sangola) is a city with a municipal council in Solapur district in the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is situated near Holy city Pandharpur . It is located at the intersection of state highways SH-161, SH-3, and SH-71.

Traditionally, in many historic records this area was part of the Mandesh region. Its name is derived from the Maan River. Sangole is known for pomegranate production as well as jowar.

Demographics

[edit]
Sangola Dist-Solapur

According to the 2011 Indian census, Sangole had a population of 34,321. Males constituted 51% of the population and females 48%. Sangole had an average literacy rate of 82%. Male literacy was 88%, and female literacy was 77%. Twelve percent of the population was under 6 years of age.[1]

History

[edit]

Sangole was a prominent part of the Maratha dynasty under the Ingoles. It is believed that Sangole as a town was established around the 14th or 15th century by six Ingoles. Babaji Lakhmoji Ingole & his five sons (6 Ingole's) have constructed a fort and situated town Sangole. The name of Sangole is derived from these six Ingoles (Saha Ingole) – Sangole. There is a historic fort inside Sangola town and later the Ingole's were awarded Deshmukhi of Paragane Sangole by Aadilshah of Bijapur. Still in many villages the Deshmukh families are residing – mainly – Sangole city, Deshmukh Vasti- Bamani, Jawala, Sonand. Ingole-Deshmukhs are now farmers holding lands in these villages. The direct descendant of Babaji Raje Ingole resides in Pune, Dnyaneshwar Raje Ingole-Deshmukh. The fort at Sangole was built, reportedly by Deshmukhs under Bijapur's Aadilshah king. It is believed that later the Deshmukh's left the Aadilshah of Bijapur and joined the forces of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Aadilshah had awarded Deshmukhi of 72 villages of Paragane Sangole to Ingole Deshmukh's. The town later grew up around the fort was so prosperous that it was locally called the Golden Sangola or "Sonyache Sangola" (सोन्याचे सांगोले).[citation needed]

Soon after settlement, due to the large availability of high-quality land, which produced many crops during kharip season, farming and dairy businesses flourished around the area, although at first, Sangole experienced low population density. This proved fortunate, as it was less severely impacted by such historical events as the Durga Devi drought in the 14th century and the failure of the Yadav kingdom at the hands of Alauddin Khalji in nearby Deogiri. In the 15th century, Sambhaji visited the area and Dhangar began to arrive in the city. Significant growth of the Dhangar population occurred between 1690 and 1702.[citation needed]

Maratha Empire
