I am very glad to bring out the e-Book Edition (CD version) of
the Dhulia District Gazetteer published by the Gazetteers
Department. This CD version is a part of a scheme of preparing
compact discs of earlier published District Gazetteers.
Dhulia District Gazetteer was published in 1974. It contains
authentic and useful information on several aspects of the
district and is considered to be of great value to
administrators, scholars and general readers. The copies of this
edition are now out of stock. Considering its utility,
therefore, need was felt to preserve this treasure of knowledge.
In this age of modernization, information and technology have
become key words. To keep pace with the changing need of hour, I
have decided to bring out CD version of this edition with little
statistical supplementary and some photographs. It is also made
available on the website of the state government
www.maharashtra.gov.in. I am sure, scholars and studious persons
across the world will find this CD immensely beneficial.
The present Nandurbar District was formerly the part of Dhulia
district. Therefore, this e-book also contains photographs
related to Nandurbar district.
I am thankful to the Honourable Minister, Shri. Ashokrao Chavan
(Industries and Mines, Cultural Affairs and Protocol), and the
Minister of State, Shri. Rana Jagjitsinh Patil (Agriculture,
Industries and Cultural Affairs), Shri. Bhushan Gagrani
(Secretary, Cultural Affairs), Government of Maharashtra for
being constant source of inspiration.
