History

Tathawade is a small, developing village. Earlier it used to be led by "Sarpanch". The localities core income was from farming but as the IT park in the nearby village developed the farmers felt that there is no point in doing farming. Later on, few builders offer larger amounts to the farmers so they can build buildings, schools, colleges & etc. And then Tathawade was came under PCMC, Pune.
