MADH
Madh (Khalapur Taluka; p. 280; RS. Khopoli; 3 m.) a village about a mile south of Khalapur, has a Ganapati temple to which the village is granted in inam. The temple was built during the Pesvas' rule. The temple is very well maintained by the villagers. The deity is worshipped by two pujdris and a number of people coming from distant places visit the temple. The
inam-holder spends a portion of his income annually towards the upkeep of the temple. Close by the temple is a tank with stone steps to reach the water and is used by the local people.
