I am very glad to bring out the
e-Book Edition (CD version) of the Yavatmal 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.
Yavatmal 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.
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.
