When in the eighteenth century the Nimbalkar family received the tract round Bhusawal in the Khandesh District with a commission for collecting chauth and sirdseshmukhi on behalf of the peshwa, their chief Mankaris or councilors were the Pandits. This family resided in Nimar for a century and-a-half and after the annexation were Kamaishdars or revenue-collectors under the Political Agent. Raoji Rajaram Pandit rendered valuable services during the Mutiny.
