This province is at present the theatre of the war waged by Aurangzeb against Shiva Ji [i.e., the Mahrattahs]. Aurangzeb has fixed his abode within it in the dread that Shiva Ji might otherwise render himself master of it. The chief town is at seventeen degrees twenty-five minutes of latitude, and one hundred and eighteen degrees fifty minutes of longitude.
