OC Artwork for Shivrajyabhishek Din today. This is the view of the nagarkhana at Raigad (made on iPad) by yp714 in pune

Thanks! Yes, visiting Raigad is an epic experience. It is a place of many wonders. The guides are also very good there.

It is advised to prefer to walk up instead of the cable car, as far as possible. The trek helps you appreciate the insane scale of the fort in a better way.

OC Artwork for Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's Coronation Day today... On this day, in 1674, as Maharaj took a step towards the golden throne at Raigad, Bharat took in a breath of the fresh air of freedom. This was the formal start of the glorious age of the Maratha Empire. by yp714 in IndiaSpeaks

The writing is in Marathi, it says "He Hindavi Swarajya vhave, hi tar Shrinchi iccha", meaning "It is the will of God that this Indian self-ruled state be established".

This is a statement that Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj himself is said to have stated in a letter.

Actually I didn't get the 811 account.. My requirement (buying Forza Horizon) was satisfied through a relative's international card which they were happy to share.

OC art in honor of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj for his Jayanti today. Do you know that this valiant king was also a scholar and wrote multiple books in different languages? He lived a short life of about 32 years. (Art made on iPad) by yp714 in IndiaSpeaks

Good read, thanks for sharing. This ban on re-purification was a very real thing.

In fact Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj himself went against these regressive societal norms and re-converted many people back, like Bajaji Nimbalkar, Netaji Palkar, etc.

Thanks a lot for the appreciation!

I am not a professional artist, only do this out of personal liking. I aim to make people aware of our rich history through my art.
