Pimpalner, Parner
Pimpalner is a small town in Parner Taluka in Ahmednagar district of the state of Maharashtra, India. It belongs to the Nashik Division. It is located 49 km to the west of the district headquarters Ahmednagar, 12 km from Parner, and 189 km from the state capital Mumbai. Pimpalner is surrounded by Parner Taluka to the north, Ahmednagar Taluka to the east, Shrigonda Taluka to the south, and Khed Taluka to the west. Shirur, Ahmednagar, Shrigonda, and Manchar are the nearby cities to Pimpalner.
Pimpalner is also known for being associated with Sant Nilobaray Maharaj, a revered saint known for his devotion and spiritual teachings. His legacy continues to inspire people in the region, and his samadhi (memorial) in Pimpalner attracts devotees from nearby villages, especially during annual fairs and religious gatherings held in his honor.
The main occupation in Pimpalner is farming, secondary being business. There are almost 403 small villages[clarification needed] around the town. Total area of Pimpalner is 1708 hectares. All villagers around the town come and visit weekly market on Saturday and Sunday at nearest bhaji mandai which is shirur and parner. There is a Gram Panchayat, and forest office, post office.
The village's biggest accomplishment is in its use of non-conventional energy. For example, all the village street lights each have separate solar panels.[2][when?] The village is headed by a Sarpanch who is the chief of the Gram Panchayat (village panchayat). The project is heralded as a sustainable model of a village republic.
In 1975 the village was afflicted by drought, poverty prevailed, and trade in illicit liquor was widespread. The village tank could not hold water as the embankment dam wall leaked. Work began with the percolation tank construction. Hazare encouraged the villagers to donate their labour to repair the embankment. Once this was fixed, the seven wells below filled with water in the summer for the first time in memory.
Now the village has water year-round, as well as a grain bank, a milk bank, and a school.
Zila Parishad (Marathi Shala) provides primary school education up to fourth standard. Secondary education is available in secondary high school up to 10th standard. For further education students have to commute to nearby town mainly Shirur and Parner.[citation needed]
The majority of the population in the village is Hindu.
