  Kandesh - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Kandesh (also Khandesh) is a region of central India, which forms the northwestern portion of Maharashtra state.
Kandesh was ruled by the Faruqi dynasty from 1388 to 1601, who maintained their independence from the Bahmani Sultanate which ruled much of the Deccan from the fourteenth to the sixteenth centuries.
It was conquered by the Marathas in the early eighteenth century, and ruled by the Maratha Peshwas until their defeat in the Third Anglo-Maratha War in 1818, when Kandesh, along with most of the Peshwa's dominions, became part of Bombay province of the British Raj.

Unlike the rest of the Deccan, whose rivers rise in the Western Ghats and flow eastward to the Bay of Bengal, the Tapti flows westward from headwaters in eastern Maharashtra to empty into the Arabian Sea.
None of the rivers is navigable, and the Tapti flows in a deep bed which historically made it difficult to use for irrigation.
Most of Kandesh lies south of the Tapti, and is drained by its tributaries the Girna, Bori and Panjhra.
