In 1911, the Maratha population in Marathwada was only 12 lakh. This proves that Jarange and his 90% supporters are just Ghatole or Vaindeshi, who adopted Maratha identity after 1900s
Small correction, Maratha population was not 12 lakh in 1911. The entire Hyderabad State (including Telangana & Marathwada) had only about 8 lakh Marathas (and even that seems inflated). So 12Lakh+ Marathas in just Marathwada by 1911 is unrealistic, Ganthadi were likely included
Even after the decline of the Maratha Power, 0.004% Maratha Sardars of Gwalior State remained overlords of the 11.1% (3.5 million) Rajput population in Malwa until independence (according to 1901 & 1931 censuses)
Raghunath Das, Diwan of Nizam had a feud with Raja Ramachandra Jadhavrao. After Das seized his Bhalki estate, tensions grew. When Afghan troops mutinied for pay, Jadhavrao urged them to slay Das & join him. They killed Das & his nephew RaiRayan on 30 Apr 1752 and joined Jadhavrao
Bhagvantrao Raje and his brother Ramarao Raje Dalavi, from the junior branch of Penth State, played significant role in Great Revolt of 1857. They provided shelter to rebel leaders and offered assistance to those seeking to overthrow British rule in India x.com/rustum_0/statuโฆ
