Editorial : Lies  SHAME  & Bhima koregaon battle

 #bhimakoregaon

Bhima koregoan battle was between britishers and natives. Dalits  supported  britishers.  Britishers won the battle with their huge army , artillery  not by mahar regiment alone.  It was the victory of british army  not  the victory of dalits. Few dalits worked in that victorious british army. Dalits & ambedkar  celebrated victory of britishers , anti nationals. Is it not shame to celebrate victory of our country's enemy ? SHAME.

Our motherland , humanity  is great , it is above all.  Nobody , no dalit , no upper caste , no brahmin , no vokkaliga , no ambedkar , no Peshwa , no gandhi  is great , all are equal and subservient  before motherland.

All castes , all religions are equal , nobody is great or God. Humanity is great. We should equally respect all , but must respect our motherland as great.

Lies are inserted and false history  written  about bhima koregoan battle , to appease dalit vote bank. 

Actually celebration of  Bhima Koregaon battle victory is anti national act , crime. They are celebrating victory of british over Indians. 

Hope wisdom will dawn.

Koregaon Bhima Location of Koregaon Bhima in India

A 1000-strong force led by Peshwa Baji Rao II whilst on their way to attack the company-held Pune, were unexpectedly met by an 800-strong Company force that was on its way to reinforce the British troops in Pune. The Peshwa dispatched around 200 soldiers to attack the force which sought entrenchment in Koregaon. Led by Captain Francis Staunton, the Company troops defended their position for nearly 12 hours, before the Peshwa's troops ultimately withdrew, fearing the imminent arrival of a larger British force.

The battle was part of the Third Anglo Maratha war, a series of battles that culminated in the defeat of the Peshwa rule and subsequent rule of the British East India Company in nearly all of Western, Central and Southern India.^[2] There is a "victory pillar" (obelisk) in Koregaon commemorating the battle.^[3]

Memorial

edit

To commemorate its fallen soldiers, the East India Company commissioned a "victory pillar" (an obelisk) in Koregaon.^[27] The inscription of the pillar declares that Captain Staunton's force "accomplished one of the proudest triumphs of the British Army in the East."^[25]

Significance to Mahars

B. R. Ambedkar and his followers at the Koregaon victory pillar on 28 December 1927

The Koregaon pillar inscription features the names of the 49 Company soldiers killed in the battle.^[28] 22 of these names end with the suffix -nac (or -nak), which was used exclusively by the people of Mahar caste.^[25][29] The obelisk was featured on the Mahar Regiment's crest until Indian Independence. While it was built by the British as a symbol of their own power, today it serves as a memorial of the Mahars.^[22][30]

The Mahars were considered untouchable in the contemporary caste-based society. The Britishers, who were from the 'East India-company' were notorious for their mistreatment and persecution of the untouchables.^[31] Notorious Britishers were successful in creating a rift between the two classes and instigating the illiterate Mahars against the Brahmins by offering them high positions in their company. Because of this, the Dalits (former untouchables), after independence, saw the Koregaon obelisk as a symbol of their victory over the high-caste oppression.^[32] Babasaheb Dr B. R. Ambedkar visited the site on 1 January 1927. Even Kanshi Ram Ji also visited the site. To commemorate his visit to the site, now thousands of his followers visit the site every New Year's Day.^[33] A number of Mahar gatherings have also been held at the place.^[28]
