Nizamabad was ruled by Rashtrakutas in the 8th century, was ruled by the king "Indra Vallabha Panthya Varsha Indra Som". The city was named after him.
In the year 1905 the railway line between Secundrabad and Manmad was constructed. The railway station was named after then ruler of the Nizam state "Nizam-ul-Mulk" as Nizamabad. The railway line connects Hyderabad and Mumbai. It is like North-South corridor. Has the distance of 161 km from Hyderabad and 640 km from Mumbai.
Nizamabad history is dated back to the very inception of human civilization. Paleolithic tools, cooking utensils and weapons excavated at Pochampad, a site in Nizamabad, indicates the existence of the town in the Stone Age. Its story of evolution is an interesting chapter in the volumes of the history of India.
700 BC - 300 BC : Assaka/Asmaka/Ashmaka (The 16 Mahajanapadas)
In the 6th century BC, Ashmaka, a Surya Vamsha king, established a kingdom and built the city Poudana. This city was later captured by King Karna with the help of the Nagula tribe. Consequently it is believed that the inhabitants of Poudana were descendants of the Nagula tribe and therefore were brave and fearless in nature.
300 BC - 185 BC : Mauryan Empire
Ashmaka soon moved into the hands of the Nanda kings. They were however severely defeated by Chandragupta Maurya who established his control over the territory with the help of his shrewd and intelligent Prime Minister Kautilya or Chanakya.
Mauryas were followed by the Satavahanas, Ikshwakas, Vishna Kundinas, and the Badami Chalukyas who established their sovereignty over Nizamabad. It is little wonder that their rule have sufficiently contributed in influencing its heritage and culture.

His long and effective reign led people to rename this city after its great ruler to commemorate his successfulreign. Hence Ashmaka came to be known as Indur or Indrapuri. The name remains etched in the minds and hearts of its people who wish to refer to their favorite city with its old name as an endearment. Indur soon assumed significant prominence as is evident from its reference in the religious scriptures of various Indian religions namely Jainism, Buddhism and Hinduism.

Poet Pampa Samdhi
973 AD - 1158 AD : Western Chalukyas / Kalyani Chalukyas (973 AD - 1189 AD)

Founder : Tailapa II Capitals : Manyakheta, Kalyani (Basavakalyan in Bidar , Karnataka)
Bodhan, Nizamabad District.
Poet Pampa Samdhi
An epigraph on samadhi, locally said to be that of poet Pampa, along some other epigraphs brought from Bodhan, the headquarters of a taluka of the name in the Nizamabad district. The samadhis are not on ground but on the fort wall. Some time ago, a contractor, it is said, started to transport earth from the fort wall, when the pillars on the samadhis which were standing in the middle of the fort wall fell down almost to the ground level. The fort wall, though built of mud, appears like a small hillock. Now the samadhi pillars are lying near Sri Linganna's house adjacent to the fort wall. As the pillars have come down as there are many samadhis besides, it is not possible to find its exact location.
It is stated in the inscription that a Jain saint by name Subhanandi attained samadhi (at Bodhan, of course). The name of Pampa finds no place in it, though the local tradition attributes the samadhi to Pampa. As we know from the Adipurana (Stanza 35 of 16th chapter) that Pampa had another name `Subha'.

finally came to be formed in 1956 AD. This marked the entry of Indur into the modern era.

1923 : In 1923 Nizamabad district witnessed the construction of the Nizam Sagar Dam. Built across the River Manjira in Achampet, it irrigates around 250,000 acres of land in the district. It is also considered to be one of the biggest irrigation projects that meet the water consumption requirements for the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad.
Nizamabad History has found a significant position in the annals of history. Its birth, growth and advancement towards modern civilization have ensured that it justifies its right to earn and retain that position.

1687 AD - 1724 AD : Mughal Empire
The Asaf Jahi occupation followed soon after.
1724 AD - 1948 AD : Asaf Jahis
With the ascent of Aurangzeb to the throne of Delhi, the Golkonda kingdoms including Indur came into the hands of the Mughals.
Indur's role in the 1857 mutiny led it to be included in the Indian union. Since it continued to remain under the aegis of the Nizams, Indur was then renamed as Nizamabad. The district of Nizamabad
finally came to be formed in 1956 AD. This marked the entry of Indur into the modern era.
Sep 17, 1948 - Oct 31, 1956 : Hyderabad State, India.
1 November, 1956 - 1 June, 2014 : Andhra Pradesh State, India
2 June, 2014 : Telangana State, India.
1905 : The modernization of Indur can be traced back to 1905 and can be marked by the laying down of railway tracks between Secunderabad and Manmad. This was the first time a mode of transport was being set up to establish faster communication between Nizamabad and the rest of the world.
1923 : In 1923 Nizamabad district witnessed the construction of the Nizam Sagar Dam. Built across the River Manjira in Achampet, it irrigates around 250,000 acres of land in the district. It is also considered to be one of the biggest irrigation projects that meet the water consumption requirements for the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad.
Nizamabad History has found a significant position in the annals of history. Its birth, growth and advancement towards modern civilization have ensured that it justifies its right to earn and retain that position.
