Book Launch of “Ranadhurandhar Shahajiraje Bhosale” by Union Minister Nitin Gadkari

Pune (Maharashtra) [India], September 11:  There is abundant literature on the life and contributions of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in Maharashtra and across the world. Thousands of historians have researched the king’s life journey in various languages. Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is known to the world as the founder of Maratha rule (Swarajya). However, little has been written about his father, Shahajiraje, who inspired him to establish Swarajya.

Pune-based historian Amar Yuvraj Dangat has tried to remove these lacunae. He wrote a book, ‘Randhurandhar Shahajiraje Bhosale,’ after researching and studying Shahajiraje’s life for 10 years. Union Minister Nitin Gadkari released the book at his home in Nagpur. Historian-written Amar Yuvraj Dangat and Sagarraj Bodgire were present. Gadkari appreciated the efforts made by Dangat for 10 years to write the book by visiting places in Maharashtra and Karnataka.

Amar Yuvraj Dangat said, “Shahajiraje kindled the pride of Maharashtra and energised the native people during the 350 years of Islamic and foreign rule. He was the first leader who made the Maharashtrians aware of their identity. Therefore, I decided to write on his towering personality 10 years ago. I travelled across the country and completed my work at the memorial of Shahajiraje at Hodgire in Karnataka.

“I have used genuine resources and tried to present Shahajiraje’s life through this book. I have written in detail about his creation of a covert rule in Karnataka and his contribution to the setting up of ‘Swarajya’ in Maharashtra. I researched thoroughly on Shahajiraje’s known and unknown missions till date by visiting numerous places, collecting reliable references and got them verified by hundreds of experts and brought out this book.

“I am happy that my idol Gadkari Saheb released this book.”
