Abstract :
India being a country with great cultural
diversities has a number of historical towns that have
been very significant in the annals of the country.
Sometimes their features include unique architectural
structures, cultural activities, and historical background;
however, these towns experience numerous difficulties in
the contemporary world. Their cultural identity is under
threat due to the effects of speedy urbanization, societal
disregard, and shift in social status. Thus, the aim of this
research is to discover how to restore and maintain the
character and identity of these historical towns while
promoting sustainable development. This research paper
aims to bring out the historical importance of
Sindkhedraja, the present day issues that have let it lose
its identity and how it can be revived in the state of
Maharashtra. Famous for its historical background and
its historical connections with Jijabai, the mother of
Maratha king Shivaji, Sindkhedraja holds a prestigious
position in the Indian history. The goal of this paper is to
focus on the historical significance of this town, discuss
the causes of the situation that it is in now, and present
long term measures that could be taken to resurrect the
town.
