BORI.
Bori is a large village in the extreme south-west of the Kelapur
tahsil and had in 1961 a population of 3,311. It used to be the head of a pargana and before 1853 it was a thana. The village has a high school, a dispensary and a post office. There is also a police out-post. A weekly market is held on Saturdays. The district contains sixteen places called Bori of which this Bori is of some importance and is sometimes known as Patan-Bori. Two villages called Bori Khurd and Bori Budruk are situated on the
banks of the Adan river 21 miles from Yavatmal on the road to
Darwha. Their combined population was 3.696 in 1961. During
late summer Bori suffers from inadequacy of water though it is
served both by the river and wells.
