PISGAON.
Pisgaon is a small village of 388 inhabitants in Wani tahsil situated 19.31 km (about 12 miles) north-west of Wani and close to the Maregaon-Wani-Yavatmal road. It is an important point on the coal seams which the tahsil contains. A coal mine which was formerly worked here has been closed down. In February 1908 the right of digging coal in this and several neighbouring villages was leased out for a period of 30 years to Parry and Company of Madras. The village has a primary school and wells are the source of drinking water.
