Pune is a city located in the western Indian state of Maharashtra. Capital of Pune District and the 8th largest urban agglomeration in India with a population of 5 million, it is the second largest city in the state of Maharashtra. Pune is widely considered the cultural capital of Maharashtra. Pune has several reputed colleges and other educational institutions — for this reason it is called the Oxford of the East (or 'Oxford of India').
