ALL Bangali Records of Maratha Borgi Atrocities are from within this small triangle zone in Bengal:

Murshidabad
Nadia
Burdwan

Each narrative is cope for Burdwan & Nadia Zamindars fleeing Marathas.

The Square is Katwa where the Maratha Durga Puja was destroyed by Alivardi Khan. Image
One should see how small this area is relative to size of entire Bangal.

Same goes for false records of fake atrocities in Mysuru where tiny obscure zones are marked as zones of rapine.

None of these are true, they are political hotspots where propaganda intersection occurs.
Maharashtra Purana by Kabi Gangaram

Copes for: Marathas as "divine justice", then for Criminal opium trading Rai family of Burdwan and their cowardice in not joining Alivardi Khan, then copes for Alivardi Khan's murder itself.

Narrative: "Marathas lost their divine guidance"
In Gangaram's text:

No survivor witnessed Borgi atrocities in 1st Wave, he does not mark out where he was a witness (entire thing is hearsay), and the Burdwan family is cowed down completely and unable to police its vicinity, forget about even joining Nawab Alivardi Khan's army.
The 2nd Wave of Atrocities by Borgis marching out from Odissa, under direct orders of Pandit Bhaskarram Kolhatkar are mentioned after the Katwa Durga Puja ambush.

The Marathas are trying to "avenge" their ambush and overdoing their violence.

The narrative is Shakta > Vaishnava
Bhaskar Pandit (His full name Bhaskar-Ram, is hidden in the disgusting Bangali source) is Anti-Vaishnav. Vaishnavs are victims to his assault.

Until Durga Devi (Shaktas) rescues Vaishnavas by blessing Alivardi to come up with a plan of mass-murder of 22 Maratha Empire officers.
British-Knighted Sir Jadunath Sarkar openly LIES that Gangaram was an eyewitness.

A clear lie, visible to all.

Read it yourself 👇🏻
archive.org/details/in.ern…

Gangaram NEVER claimed to be an eyewitness to Borgi atrocities & emphasizes how NO ONE saw them.

Jadunath is a LIAR.
Maratha army was only 10,000 (maximum, or not even this) strong, inflated to 50,000 by Bangalis.

Maratha armies had NO Artillery till they conquered Hughli fort to destroy stone buildings. All damage would have been by fire, which is referred to by Bharatchandra. Image
Chitrachampu by Baneshwar Bidyalankar.

This is a filthy sewage-tier book. Unlike Gangaram, Vidyalankar doesn't even have any idea of the political complexities. For him the Maratha invasion is "sudden, uninvited".

When the Bangali Nawab abuses Marathas what did Bangalis expect?
This same poem ignores how the 40,000+ Rohillas from Bihar committed atrocities against the Bengalis, till even the Muslims and local Tribals of Odissa and Bengal invited Senasahebsubah Raghuji Bhosale to come liberate them.

Can 10,000 Bargirs equal 40,000 Afghans in the chaos?
Annadamangal by Rai Gunakar Bharatchandra is best source on Maratha campaign in Bangal.

It is also a Bangali cultural masterpiece.

Unlike Maharashtra Purana nobody has translated this text for obvious reasons. Unlike Gangaram, Bharatchandra does not change support for Marathas.
One of Nagpur Senasahebsubah's Marathi Brahmin General Bhavani Pandit took oath to built a Temple (at Amravati) if he was successful in campaigns of Bangal.

Doesn't make sense to build a temple after destroying temples does it?
Who would tell Padunath? He never visited Amravati! Image
Old Soy Mysuri casteist chauvinist trojan horse @maidros78 in RW translates & supplies Anti-Maratha propaganda to Islamists. He has been doing Anti-Maratha propaganda since 2015 & nobody noticed it.
Chitracampu book isnt metaphorical, it LITERALLY says Marathas had flying horses!
"Marathas could travel 100 Yojanas (8-1500 kms) in one day"

-Baneshwar Vidyalankar LITERALLY believes that, as explanation why nobody ever saw Marathas conduct atrocities with their own eyes.

Gangaram also says the same. Vidyalankar says the same. Bharatchandra copes for that.

Maratha Sensahebsubah's Diwan Pandit Bhaskarram definitely came to Bengal to settle with his pregnant wife Taibai.

He surely hoped she would deliever in Bangal & his son would be 1st Kolhatkar Marathi Brahmin line of Bangal.

Till Alivardi Khan murdered him when he was unarmed. Image
Maratha lord Shrimant Sardar Raghujiraje Gaikwad led the unarmed Hindu women and children to safety away from the mass-rapist killer iconoclast Bengali Nawab's army towards Awadh, where at Kashi, Pandit Bhaskarram Kolhatkar's wife Taibai finally delivered her son: named Kashirao.
Kashirao had to grow up without a father because of Alivardi Khan.

Pir Alis from this tiny region wrote propaganda eternally ruining the name and reputation of Bhaskarram, even removing -Ram from his name, calling him:

"Killer of Vaishnav Brahmins, Killer of Pregnant Women." Image

Samadhi of Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaja 👑

This was NEVER considered an important memorial of Chattrapati & nobody cared for it.

Raigad was soon going to be lost.

The Real Memorial to Chattrapati, CONTINUOUSLY worshipped, is at Sindhudurg Fort's Bhagwan Shivarajeshwar Mandir.
The REAL memorial to Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaja which has been worshipped nonstop since the day it was raised by Chattrapati Rajaram Maharaja.

It did not require any wandering flowery political opportunists to exhume it out of the mud, it was ALWAYS shining resplendent.
Akhanda Saubhagyavati Shrimati Maharani Saibai Bhonsale Samadhi.

She belonged to the ancient Naik Nimbalkar Paramara House of Phaltan.

Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaja regarded Her as His "Janma-Sakhi" (partner from multiple lifetimes) and this was confirmed by astrologers as well.

Bhagwati Temple constructed by Maratha Sarkhel Kanhoji Angre Sakpal 👑

Sanskrit Inscription:

श्रीभगवति श्रीमछकेषोड
श शत सप्तचत्वारिशं नमः
धिकं सवछर विश्वावसुन्ना
मा शुभे तस्मिन्वछरे *आंगरे
कान्होजी सरखेल* श्रीमत्काम
च देवी देवालय करोदिती
जानातुजनो भविष्यमाणः
||1||

In 1725 CE.
The original Clan name of Rajashri Kanhoji Angre's family before his birth is Shankhapala (Sakpal). His parents named him "Kanhoji Angre" due to His birth after His father applied Bhagwan Shri Krishna's Yajna's Angara (an event which also also gave village Angrawadi its name).
The Devi Bhagwati Mandir is in Kotkamte village of Devgad Taluka of Sindhudurg district in Konkan region of Maharashtra.

Next to it are temples of Shri Ravalnath, Hanuman, Pavan Ai.

Its clear the original Mandir was meant to be an aesthetic black stone colour, but now...

Ramachandrapant Amatya: Opinion on European Colonizers.

100 Years before British Invasion 📜

Contrary to propaganda, Hindus were aware of Colonialist threat. Marathas defused Portuguese, Dutch, and drew French to their side.

But Maratha Civil War broke their counter capacity.
Even as people knew the truth, taking action is another matter entirely.

Nana Fadnavis Balaji Janardhan Bhanu's opinion on Britishers, literally DURING their invasion.

"English Sincerity is false."

"Be-Imāni & Farebi is in the very nature of the Topikar British Colonialists."
इंगजी जात केवल काबूचे यार.

"The nature of the English race is to dominate in the name of friendship.”

— Letter from Nagpur Senasahebsubah Ambassador Malharji Varpe to Balaji Janardhan Bhanu Nana Fadnavis, May 1780 CE.

Marathas considered British more treacherous than reverse.

There was no "irresponsible behaviour". He was simply put under surveillance.

He had problems with the corrupt extortive ministers since a long time. His viceroyalty at Shringarpur itself was one such measure by Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaja to prevent him from punishing them.
He never got Maharani Soyarabai killed. She died naturally over a year and half later after the fake British report of her death.

Her Antyeshti was performed by Chattrapati Shambhuji Maharaja himself.

Fraud historians had forwarded very disgusting lies.

Maharaja Rajaram Chattrapati was himself a 10 year old boy at this time, and a puppet. Who overthrows a kid, he saved his brother.

He was not "thrown into a jail", he was put under house-arrest in the fort itself. With open sky gardens and everything.
