Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's rule will always be treated as people's rule: Pawar
Pune: NCP (SP) chief
Sharad Pawar
on Wednesday said the
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj
empire would always be remembered as "people's rule".
Pawar was speaking at an award ceremony held by the Sahyadri Foundation in Bhugaon, where history scholars, including Jaysingrao Pawar and A H Salukhe, were honoured with the 'Shiv Swarajya Bhushan' award.
"These two historians tried to put forward the real history of Maharashtra, while some so-called scholars tried to distort the history," Pawar said. Baramati MP Supriya Sule of NCP (SP) and Congress MP from Kolhapur Shahu Chhatrapati were also on the dais.
Pawar said many kings and kingdoms ruled the nation and Delhi. The majority of them were named after the rulers like Mughals, Qutub Shahi, Nijamshahi and King of Devagiri.
"Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's rule was never known as the rule of Bhosales. It was always a rule of the public and it was Hindavi Swaraj. He always tried to unite people and bring people's rule. It gave confidence to common people. That is why we look at the Shiv Chhatrapati as the 'Yug Purush' (the man of the era)," he said.
The NCP (SP) chief said the real history of Maharashtra would be inspirational for the new generations.

Shahu Chhatrapati, who chaired the programme, said Maharashtra has a long history of scholars who promoted a progressive school of thought. "We all are observing what is happening in the world, nation and state currently. If the progressive leaders come together, the situation will change for the better," he said.
