Samsthanas in the Nizam Kingdom

  • The Nizam's dominion contained 14 Samsthanas with independent status:

    • Gadwal
    • Wanaparthy
    • Domakonda
    • Jataprolu (Kolhapur)
    • Munagala
    • Papannapet
    • Paloncha
    • Sirnapalli
    • Amarchinta
    • Narayankhed
    • Rajapet
    • Annegond
    • Dubbaka
    • Gopalapet
  • The Samsthanas functioned as important semi-autonomous landed estates within the wider political structure of Hyderabad State.

  • Major Samsthanas associated with Telangana included Gadwal, Wanaparthy, Domakonda, Jataprolu, Munagala, Palvancha, Amarchinta, Papannapet and Sirnapalli.

  • Boravelli Samsthana was later absorbed into Gadwal Samsthana and is therefore treated separately in the historical account.
