Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi,Swami Vivekananda,and Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose are called ‘Yuga Purush’.
Reestablished culture
At a time when the country was pushed towards slavery,it was Shivaji Maharaj who prevented and helped in reestablishing the rich cultural heritage of the country.
During the Mughal rule,a lot of states had been captured in the conspiracy of Taimur and had planned to take control of South India.
Shivaji got inspiration from his Guru Kondoji and mother Jeejabai and learned bravery and self-confidence from them.
Several regions were captured through Guerilla warfare and successfully prevented the onslaught on the Hindu society.He not only changed history but also wrote a new history.
Shivaji strove hard to build a society with character and kept his people happy.A supreme patriot and his life history must be remembered,the CM said.
All in Karnataka are Kannadigas
