=Badnera=
(or Wadnera).— Town in the District and taluk of Amraoti,
Berar, situated in 2o°52'N. and 77 46' E. Population (1901), 10,859.
The town is mentioned in the Ain-i-Akbarl as the head-quarters of
a pargatia in the sarkar of Gawll. It is known as Badnera Bibl, as
it formed, with Karanja, part of the dowry of Daulat Shah Begam,
daughter of Darya Imad Shah of Berar, who was given in marriage to
Husain Nizam Shah of Ahmadnagar. The exactions of successive
rulers depopulated Badnera, and it was plundered in 1822 by Raja
Ram, who partly demolished the fort and town walls. The railway
station (Badnera junction) is 413 miles from Bombay, on the Nagpur
branch of the Great Indian Peninsula Railway. It is connected with
Amraotl by a branch (state) railway 6 miles long. Badnera is important
as the station whence all the Amraotl cotton is dispatched to Bombay.
The town contains a cotton-spinning and weaving factory, where 24S
looms and 16,336 spindles were at work in 1903-4, the number of
hands employed being 822.
