Shirgaon ("Shirgaav" in the Marathi language) is a small village in the Walwa subdivision of the Sangli District, Maharashtra state, India.

It is located 32 km west of Sangli and 320 km from Mumbai.

Agriculture is one of the main sources of income, with the main cultivated crop being sugar cane, followed by peanuts and soya beans. Most of the land is irrigated.

Population

As of the 2011 Indian census,[1] Shirgaon has a population of 1,950 inhabitants. Males make up 52% of the population and females 48%.

The traditional business of the Ambis is to drive small boats ("hodi", or "naav" in Marathi) on the river.

The town

The village is surrounded by the Krishna River on three sides. During floods, the only way into the village is from the north.

The village has very few schools in the area with the primary/secondary schools K. Laxmibai Naikwadi Vidhyalay and the Shirgaon Z.P. School.

There is an ancient temple of Shiva on the banks of the river. Every year there are Mahashivratri celebrations in the temple, attended by a large number of devotees.
