Also Marathi women used to ride horses. They also faught wars. e.g. Jhansi ki Rani. A Saree parted in the middle is convenient for riding a horse. You were ruled by Mughals and Muslims. You never fought with them. Don't ask such questions. Read more about Maharshtra's history. We and Sikhs in Punjab are the reason why India is not a Muslim country. And during the British occupation it was Maharashtra, Bengal and Punjab who led all the revolutionary movements against the British. Tilak, Jhansi Ki Rani Laxmibai, Tatya Tope, Rajguru ( with Bhagat Singh), Vishnu Ganesh Pingale ( Gadar movement), Savarkar, Hegdewar, Gokhale ( Gandhiji's political guru) the list goes on and on. Freaking Bimaree. Lives in Maharashtra and doesn't know a damn thing. Thank god we are having this discussion on the internet. If you spoke with a Maharashtrian face to face, god knows what will happen to you.
