KHARIVALI

Kharivali (Manganv T. 19°35' N. 73°00' E; RS. Khopoli 7 m.; p. 1119) was the birth place of Khandoji Mapkar, who for some time was in the employ of Kanhoji Angre and later went over to the Pesvas. He was said to have been a good artisan and his and his son's ' samadhis' are to be seen side by side, near the village lake. Mapkar's ' vada ' or palace is still in good repairs and is occupied by the descendants of the family.
