23rd April 1660
Sri Ranga Industrial Tools, Nagpur, Akhand Bharatiya Empire
After nearly three weeks of relentless struggle, the first Devaraya atmospheric steam engine got out of the production line. The engineers working on the production line immediately started to do the inspection and testing for any manufacturing defects.
One reason it took nearly three weeks for the steam engine to be produced was mainly because, before Vijay invented the steam engine, Sri Ranga Industrial Tools had no factory in Nagpur. The factory had to be set up first before the production could start. Thankfully, the artisan complex was owned by Vijay, so the complex was turned into a small manufacturing plant, which was used as a reserve.
