'''Wardha district''' ({{lang-mr|वर्धा जिल्हा}}) is one of the 35 districts in [[Maharashtra]] state in western [[India]]. This district is a part of [[Nagpur Division]]. The city of [[Wardha]] is the administrative headquarters of the district. The district had a population of 1,300,774 of which 26.28% were urban as of 2011.
==History==
The History of Wardha dates back to [[prehistoric]] period. It has a unique place in the Indian Natural History, since the Ostrich egg-shell has been found at Sindi ([[Railway]]) in Wardha district. It was included in the empire of [[Maurya]]s, [[Sungas]], [[Satavahanas]] and [[Vakatakas]] Pravarpur, modern Pavnar was once the capital of the Vakataka dynasty. Vakatakas were contemporary of Imperial [[Gupta Empire|Guptas]]. The daughter of Chandragupta II (Vikramaditya) was married with Vakataka ruler Rudrasena. The period of Vakatakas was the 2nd to 5th centuries AD and their empire stretches from Arabian sea in west to Bay of Bengal in east, Narmada river in north to Krishna-Godavari delta in south.
Later on, Wardha was ruled by [[Chalukya]]s, [[Rashtrakuta]]s, [[Seuna Yadavas of Devagiri|Yadava]]s, [[Delhi Sultanate]], Bahamani Sultanate, Muslim ruler of Berar, Gonds and [[Maratha]]. Raja Buland Shaha of Gonds, Raghuji of Bhonsale were the prominent rulers in Medieval period. Nearby 1850s Wardha, (then a part of [[Nagpur]]) fell into the hands of British. They included Wardha in the Central Provenance. Wardha is a sister city for Sevagram, and both were used as major centers for the Indian Independence Movement, especially as headquarters for an annual meet of the [[Indian National Congress]] in 1934, and [[Mahatma Gandhi]]'s Ashram.
The existing Wardha district was part of [[Nagpur]] district till 1862. Further it was separated for convenient administrative purpose and Kawatha near Pulgaon was the district headquarters. In the year 1866, the district headquarters moved at Palakwadi village which is the existing place and then Wardha city was developed there. In Wardha there is one village called Pavanar where Acharya [[Vinoba Bhave]] lived.
Recently this district has been in news because of a number of suicides that have been committed by the farmers owing to the agricultural loans they can not repay, with the major reasons being bad crops, droughts and lack of irrigation facilities in the region.{{citation needed|date=November 2008}} The [[Prime Minister of India]] [[Dr. Manmohan Singh]] visited this district, review the situation and announced the economic help package for farmers.
