HistoryEdit
Trimbakji had worked as a bodyguard of Bajirao Peshwa. Soon he won the confidence of the Peshwa and the Maratha ruler almost handed over the reigns of his kingdom to him. His rule abruptly came to an end when the British East India Company charged that he was involved in a murder case. Trimbakji was arrested by the officials of the British company and he was kept at the Thane jail. However he managed to escape from the custody and came to Akole in Nashik district. He was re-arrested there. Trimbakji visited his wife and children for the last time at Nimgaojali. He died in captivity at Chunar fort. Trimbakji’s spacious wada has now lost its former glory. Some of the portions of this two-centuries old structure are in dilapidated condition. The seventh or the eighth generation descendants of Trimbakji are now residing in this Wada.
