Salute to Maj. Gen. Patil
by Ajey Gotkhindikar on Apr 08, 2008 07:58 PM

We must thank to Maj Gen Patil for fascilitating so much literature for peolpe to read. His experience of fighting the war and leading from front must be vital. Specifically the win over the Mohhamad ni Gali near Haji Pir is really inspiring. The Maratha history has been dsitroyed by the British. Marathas fought with Mughals for 23 years. Aurangzeb himself came with his all his might to Maharashtra, but could not win over Maharashtra and finally was burried in Maharashtra. Marathas scored several victories over British. Especially at the see they kept the British at the bay. During 1857 war of Independence Maratha warriers did a commendable job. Thanks to Col Anil Athale for briging these issues forth and also providing inspiring information on Maj Gen Patil.
