It's a well known fact that the history of Shivaji the great hero of BJP/RSS/Congress/Subaltern Shudras is marred by his questionable parentage.

Shivaji was born during many years of estrangement between Jijabai and Shahaji. Was he a child of (Jijabai's?) passion and with whom? Image According to the contemporary (1666) biography of Shiva "ji", by Cosme De Guarda titled "Vida e Acçoens do famoso e felicissimo Sevagy", he was stated to be the son of Dom Manoel de Menezes, the person who was the overlord of the place where Jijabai lived during her estrangement.

OTOH it's the Ambedkarite Contstitution that inhibits any innovation. Indians succeed at innovating OUTSIDE India but not in India because R&D requires money that GoI wastes on SC/ST/OBC while taking taxes from the UC.

The former is incapable and the latter is incapacitated. India's identity and obsession with Social Engineering is the primary reason. Everything is interpreted as an intersectional function of the Sociology of it all.

Remember innovation stopped in the US ever since Diversity Politics and Affirmative Action took hold.

Can Marathis be anything except civilisational frauds and thieves? Well, can't expect much from these Avarna-Shudras, their whole existence is of false claims by Shah-ji, Shiva-ji, Jotirao Phule, promoted by missionaries.

Now editing a famous historical painting to their agenda. Image According to the Smithsonian National Museum of Asian Art:

"The radiant and powerful Jahangir is depicted comforting his meek, submissive cousin, Shah Abbas of Iran. This has nothing to do with historical fact, however, and is pure wish-fulfillment on Jahangir's part." - (1/2)

Extract from the memorandum on Ahir Regiment jointly submitted by Provincial Yadava (Gopa) Mahasabha and All-India Yadava Mahasabha on December 18, 1928.

The argument here was based on the claim of a Rajput ancestry and hence eligibility for martial services. But But But, the Jadubansi Ahirs were limited to places like Rewari, Rohtak, Alwar and other Western States.

Only these Ahirs are considered authentic Ahirs, while the rest are an assortment of various castes, who unlike the western actual Ahirs are Gopas, Gadariyas etc.

These are what analysts of the Mahabharata have identified as corruptions/interpolations that appear as Bhriguisation.

Bhriguised parts are easy to identify, as the epics go off tangent in them and delve into stories of some Bhrigu hero, that fought Kshatriyas to varied results. There is no dearth of Bhrigu Vs Kshatriya narratives that are retold in numerous ways but always from a Bhrigu PoV.

And often involve hyerboles that may include extermination of either of the races.

But Sikhs are the darlings of the Hindutva brigade. Afterall, that 'Savior of Hindus' tag was accorded by the Marathis and their ideologues because of some story regarding saving Marathi women post Panipat 3.

Savarkar was one of the earliest proponents of Khalistan/Sikhisthan. In a statement dated April 8, 1941, V.D. Savarkar proposed the creation of a Sikhisthan, a 'Sikh Nation' created out of the province of the then Punjab, comprising of modern day Haryana and Himachal Pradesh, of course alongside Pakistan's Punjab.

Read "Mahābhārata > Ādiparva > Chapters 63-64" to find the real intention of inventing the myth of Paraśurāma.

Things that contradict or diverge from the main epic, should be taken with a pinch of salt and skepticism.

He's an unnecessary character corrupting scriptures. Since he is a character of unimaginable feats, his and his feats' historicity is completely out of question, and we are not going to use the atheistic argument to discredit him.

But what we can determine is the historicity of his traditions/myths, and and their origins.

The public procession element is a direct copy of the Muharram. Marathi Hindus owing to their history of occupation by Shia Deccani Sultanates used to partake in Muharram celebrations.

In 1893, they replaced the Janaza with Lord Ganesha's idol and kept the element of procession. The Marathis who claimed they saved Hindus, used to make Tazias/Taboots/Janaza for Muharram processions and danced around with the Muslims, ultimately culminating in the immersion of the Tazia.

Do you know the only Muslim Kingdom in Rajputana was Tonk. A state established by Amir Khan Pindari in 1817, with the help of Yashwant Rao Holkar. Pindaris and Holkars were partners in crime and inflicted the worst kind of unfathomable depravities upon the Hindus of North India. ImageImage This is a contemporary source from early 1800s, March 4, 1819 to be exact where Lord Canning in a Vote of Thanks to the Marquis of Hastings, in the House of Commons is describing the kind of atrocities that were being unleashed in the north by the marauding scourge of the Deccan.

Ever wondered why Marathas, Sikhs, Muslims, Jats, Ahirs, Gujjars, Ahoms, Socialists, Left, Right, some Southerners, or even some Brahmins can't stop attacking Rajputs? Wondered what purpose does it solve for them? And why this phenomenon appeared in the late colonial period only? The late colonial period ushered in the politics of quantity, of democracy, of societal acceptance. Any such societal acceptance for a people group couldn't have come without a civilisational legitimacy of political power, of the role and status of a Kshatriya.
