MAYANI

Mayani (Khatav T; 17° 25' N, 74° 30' E; RS. Koreganv 36 m. NW; p. 4,485) lies thirteen miles south-east of Vaduj at the junction of the Tasganv-Mograla and Malharpeth-Pandharpur roads. The town is walled and entered by gates on the west and east. The wall is in a much ruined condition at present. A tolerable water-supply is obtained from a stream which runs by the north-east of the town and falls into the Yerla five miles south-west. The canal and most of the good soil lie to the south of the town. In places where the level of the land is too high for water to be obtained direct from the canal, it is raised by waterlifts attached to small wells dug near the canal banks and supplied by sluices from the canal.
