=Balaghat, Hyderabad =

(Bald, 'above,' and ghat, 1 a. mountain pass'). — Range of 
hills in the western half of Hyderabad State. It extends from the 
Biloli taluk in Nander District in the east, through the southern 
portion of Parbhani District, past Dharur and Patoda to Ashti in Blur 
District in the west, having a length of 200 miles and a width which 
varies between 3 and 6 miles. A spur of this range branches off from 
Ashti, and taking a south-easterly direction traverses the tracts which 
lie between the rivers Sma, Manjra, and Kagna, comprising the 
Districts of Bhir, Osmanabad, and Gulbarga, and terminates in the 
last-named District. Another spur starts from the south of Parbhani 
District, also in a south-easterly direction, and passes through the 
Rajura taluk of Bldar District, south of Kaulas in Nizamabad District. 
The country enclosed by the range and its two spurs forms a plateau, 
known locally as the Balaghat.
