Seeing Shivaji's talent, he gave them verbally knowledge of Ramayana, Mahabharata and other religious texts. Along with mental development, Dadaji Angad taught Shivaji with martial arts. Shivaji was also given the knowledge of administration by his grandfather, Kanadeva. Therefore, apart from Jijabai, the impact of Grandfather Angad Dev was the biggest on Shivaji's life and character.

Maratha Blood

Maratha and Yadav's blood was flowing in Shivaji's artery. Naturally, there was no shortage of courage, courage and self-respect in favor of dynasty.

Maval Pradesh was 90 miles long and 19 miles wide by a vast territory covered with hills and valleys near the Western Ghats. In this region people of Koli and Maratha castes used to live as struggling lives and were regarded as hardworking and skilled soldiers. Shivaji Maharaj made contact with the residents of the state and became acquainted with their various parts. By bringing Maval youth to their side, Shivaji started the construction of the fort.

The support of Maval castes proved to be very important for Shivaji as the support of Afghans for Sher Shah. On the strength of Afghan cooperation, Sher Shah founded the Afghan Empire, in the same way Shivaji also wanted to establish an independent nation on the basis of Mavalons.

Marriage
