Brahmins from the North are perhaps the last people who should be lecturing others on this subject.
When the Marathas, including Maharashtrian Brahmins, were fighting the Mughals, you chose to watch from the sidelines. And today, you suddenly invoke Maharashtrian Brahmins who played significant roles in the First War of Independence in 1857, as though their legacy somehow belongs to you.
Every Brahmin mentioned in your post is a Maharashtrian. They belonged to the intellectual and political tradition of Maharashtra shaped by Chhatrapati Shivaji, the great!
So, perhaps a little introspection and some honesty about history would be appropriate.
Since you mentioned the Holkars, let us also remember Yashwantrao Holkar, who remained one of the strongest Indian opponents of British expansion in the early 19th century. Had that fool Bajirao II supported Yashwantrao instead of pursuing his own course, the subsequent history of the Marathas and the Indian subcontinent in whole, might well have been different.
And let us not forget the Bhosales. Pratapsinh Maharaj, the last Chhatrapati of the Maratha Empire, also resisted British interference and paid a heavy price for it. Unfortunately, he did not always receive the support he needed from his own people, whether Brahmins or Marathas.
Personally, I have very little interest in caste-kanging. I sincerely hope that everyone indulging in it, including you, finds something more constructive to do that benefits society as a whole.
Grow up! History is not a trophy to be claimed merely to make another community feel small.
Seven males raped a 20 year old girl at an American university for hours after sedating her with Ketamine, a highly toxic drug and all they got back in punishment is an essay…!
No coverage by Western Media. Imagine what @nytimes and @BBC would do if this happened in India.
Pune’s Ganesh immersion procession was among the noisiest, longest and most monotonous this year — 33+ hours, an hour longer than last year, with Laxmi Road averaging 104.5 dB. All this despite mounting criticism & repeated police assurances of curbs. Numbers tell the story
Savarkar had said:
"Mahars are extremely proud of their caste. They are strongly against sharing food with lower castes such as Bh*&gis.
"Mahars do not allow Mangs to take water from their wells. Mahars will not do the work of a Bh*&gi, unless in dire emergency.
During my arranged programmes of 'dining together', if Mahars find any Cha*&rs present,they immediately get out in disgust."
the consequence of abandoning your svadharma, not undergoing yajñopavīta saṃskāra, and not imposing dhārmika restrictions on yourself and your seed is the destruction of your lineage through intimate bonding with nāstikas; health and wealth will eventually be destroyed from it
People are going crazy over Vidyanand Bapat's Marathi lately, but do you remember Mahesh Kale's Marathi when he was a judge on Sur Nava Dhyas Nava? So there is nothing new about it 🤷🏻♀️ Btw that first season is still my absolute favourite.

सर्व वृत्तांकन करणारे पत्रकार, लोकशाहीत निवडून आलेले लोकप्रतिनिधी आणि शासकीय अधिकारी यांनी ही सुधारणा नक्की करून घ्यावी ही अतिनम्र विनंती.

लक्ष्मी रोड वरती dj, त्याच वेळी सिटी प्राइड जवळ dj आणि त्याच वेळी संयुक्त मंडळ नागनाथ पार येथे नाचणारा घोळका. वाढत्या मंडळांची आणि ढोल पथकांची संख्या, वाढती गर्दी यावर कायमस्वरूपी तोडगा काढायला हवा अन्यथा परिस्थिती सार्वजनिक गणेशोत्सवावर बंदी घालण्यापर्यंत जाईल.
