Talk:Patil

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I just want to add one more thing.

Patil was the title given to a person who was granted a territory of land, in certain regions probable 3-4 towns in maharashtra by Chatrapati shivaji maharaj or Maratha kings. The granted territory is usually referred to as the Patilki or Inamki or Watan of the person. The patil was in effect the ruler of the territory. He was having responsibility of rule and regulation in his territory.

The same term called Deshmukhi was the Inaam of Muslim rulers Nizam's or Aadil's.Also Chatrapati shivaji also gave deshmukhi's.
