NIMAJI HOUSE
The motto of the House is, “VIDHYA DADAATI VANIYAM”Who was Nimaji?
Nimaji Shinde was from the Patils of Kanerkhed village, and a stalwart ancestor of the Scindia dynasty. His contribution to the battles fought by the Marathas against Aurangzeb is recalled with reverence. In 1704, he attacked the Mughal forces in Malwa and earned a position of honour amongst Maratha warriors, known as Samanta.
