Indapur is a town and a municipal council in Pune district in the Indian state of Maharashtra.
Indapur city is located to the nearest Bhima River, Ujani Dam & Baramati-the hometown of Indian politician Mr. Sharad Pawar.
Indapur has historic significance in the expansion of Mughal empires in Central-South India, and subsequent Maratha resistance.
He was four times MLA from indapur & also work as minister in maharashtra.. Born to Babaji Bhosale, Malojiraje (grandfather of the Shivaji) was a Sardar under Nizamshah - the ruler of that region appointed by the Moghul emperor.
While Shahajiraje was the Sardar of Adilshah, Nijamshah offered the Jagir of Indapur and Supe to him in order to get him back.
In the year 1660, Indapur, Baramati and Pune had been captured by the Mogul army headed by Shaistekhan.
Sensing this as a unique opportunity, before the preparation of the Mogul army, Shivaji decided to attack the urban area of Pune, Baramati, Supe and Indapur in the rainy season.
Within 10–15 days, Marathas captured all these areas back from Mughals using their famous guerilla warfare techniques.
By the time rainy season started, Indapur, Baramati and many other regions, excluding Pune, were won by Marathas.
