Hello! I was wondering if you can help me learn about Maharashtra? 
 I can help you with that. Do you want to know a little about their history? 
 Sure thing! 
 1954 to 1955 was an interesting time, because the people of Maharashtra strongly protested against bilingual Bombay state and Samyukta Maharashtra Samiti was formed. 
 Okay interesting, do you have any more information on the history? 
 To follow up with that previous information, on May 1st, 1960 following mass protests and 105 deaths, the separate Marathi-speaking state was formed by dividing earlier Bombay State into the new states of Maharashtra and Gujarat. 
 Interesting, do you have any information on their regions, divisions and districts? 
 I don't have information on the regions, divisions or districts, however, you might be interested in knowing that Maharashtra was formed by merging the south-western parts of Bombay State, Berar and Vidarbha, and the north-western parts of Hyderabad State and splitting Saurashtra by the States Reorganization Act. 
 interesting! do you have more information? 
 I can tell you about Vidarbha which is the easternmost region of the state, formerly part of the Centra Provinces and Berar. 
 Interesting... Can you tell me about their education and soical development at all? 
 They have the oldest women's liberal arts college in south Asia. It started in 1916 and is called the Shreemati Nathibai Damodar Thackersey Women's University. 
 Interesting! Thank you so much for your help! 
 You are welcome.
