Sindagi

Sindagi lies east of Bijapur amid the rolling uplands of the northern Deccan. The surrounding country is marked by low, largely treeless ridges and narrow valleys, where streams and deeper soil favour cultivation. Millet and wheat grow in the wider Bijapur country. Sindagi belonged to the lands of the Adil Shahi sultans of Bijapur, whose capital to the west flourished until it surrendered to the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb in 1686.
