Thane (Marathi: [ˈʈʰaːɳeː]; previously known as Thana, the official name until 1996) is a metropolitan city located on the northwestern side of the state of Maharashtra in India and on the northeastern side of Mumbai. It is an immediate neighbour of Mumbai city proper, and a part of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. It is situated in the north-eastern portion of the Salsette Island.
Thane city is situated entirely within Thane taluka, one of the seven talukas of Thane district. It serves as the headquarters of the district. Thane city ranks as the 15th most populous city in India, with a population of 1,890,000 according to the 2011 census.[1]
Etymology and other names
The ancient name of Thana was Śrīsthāna. It appears as Thāna in early medieval Arab sources.[2]
The name Thane has been variously Romanised as Tana,[3] Thana,[4] Thâṇâ,[5] and Thame.[6] Ibn Battuta and Abulfeda knew it as Kukin Tana; Duarte Barbosa as Tana Mayambu.[7] Before 1996, the city was called "Thana", the British spelling of the city, until it was replaced with the more-local name.
History
A copper plate dating to AD 1078 was discovered near the foundations of Thane Fort in 1787. A land grant from Arikesara Devaraja, lord of Tagara, wherein he addresses the inhabitants of a city called "Sri Sthanaka".[8] For a long time, it was a military training and recruitment center of the Maratha Empire.
The East India Company occupied Salsette Island, Thana Fort, Fort Versova and the island fort of Karanja in start of First Anglo-Maratha War but after short time it were recaptured by the forces of Haripant Phadke and Tukoji Holkar. It remained under control of the Maratha Empire until Second Anglo-Maratha War.[9]
