Gadchiroli March 8 (District Correspondent) After Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, the king of vision in modern India was his descendant Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj. In terms of social disparity, Shivaji Maharaj had to endure the humiliation from the orthodox. Shahu Maharaj also had to face the similar social ostracism. However, in terms of education and development and other field like agriculture, cooperation, art, sports etc, the decisions taken by Shahu Maharaj, keeping the Bahujan society in front of his eyes, are the foundation of the new Indian constitution. Not only this, the Shahu Maharaj’s thought process and policy of reservation is the foundation behind the reservation policy in the Constitution of India.
