Overview
Nagpur is Maharashtra's winter capital and the geographic centre of India — a zero-mile stone marker here designates the nation's mathematical midpoint — and is internationally known as India's 'Orange City' for the world-renowned Nagpuri (Santra) oranges grown in the surrounding Vidarbha region. The city is equally significant as the site of Deekshabhoomi, where Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, the architect of India's constitution, converted to Buddhism along with 600,000 followers on Dhamma Chakra Pravartan Din in October 1956 — one of the largest mass religious conversions in history. Nagpur is also the headquarters of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), founded here in 1925. The road from Mumbai to Nagpur stretches 870 km via NH 48, a comfortable 13-14-hour drive that many travellers find enjoyable. Whether visiting for the first time or returning, a Mumbai to Nagpur taxi with Miles Tours ensures a safe, comfortable, and affordable road trip.
NH 48 / National Highway MaharashtraHistory & Significance
Nagpur was the capital of the Bhonsle Maratha kingdom from 1739 until 1853 when the British annexed it under the Doctrine of Lapse; it then became the capital of the Central Provinces and Berar under the British until independence. The Bhonsle kings built Sitabuldi Fort at the city's centre, the site of the Battle of Sitabaldi in 1817 when British forces defeated the Nagpur Maratha kingdom.
