You must have heard rumors and so-called contemporary sources that tell us that Chhatrapati Shambhuji Maharaja violated a Brahmin girl, or that he was a drunkard and womanizer.

M. Athar Ali, the author of "Mughal Nobility Under Aurangzib," highlights the differences between Rajput and Maratha nobility.

In this letter, he did not merely beg for help but also hailed the Marathas as the only saviors of Hinduism.

Contemporary French traveler Abbé Carré documented in his diary that Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj intended to extend Hindu boundaries beyond the Sindh River.
Maharana Ari Singh II, much like the other Rajput rulers of his time, was a weak leader whose ruthless policies and behavior resulted in perpetual mismanagement within his domain.
