Online Bus Ticket Booking. Indore is a major city and commercial center of the state of Madhya Pradesh in central India. During the days of the Maratha Empire it was an important halt between the Deccan and Delhi. However after the death of Madhavrao Peshwa, the Maratha Empire disintegrated and Indore was declared the capital of the Holkar state, until Rani Ahilyabai Holkar moved the capital to Maheshwar. This is the only one place where both IIM and IIT is there.
