Born on 19 February 1630, at Shivneri Fort in Pune, Shivaji Maharaj was a 17th-century warrior king and founder of the Maratha Empire. Indian history regards him as one of its greatest warriors.

In 1674, he formally established the Maratha Empire in western India after a series of battles against the Mughals.

Beyond military conquests, Shivaji Maharaj introduced a well-structured administrative system and a broad civil code for governance.

The day honors his role in restoring the Maratha Empire and celebrating his enduring legacy.
