I find it even more sad that such people are still living in India who think they know history but don't have a clue what actually happened. Where did Marathas say they are fighting for "India" or even for "Hindus"? Can you point out any script written by any king of that time in which India has been mentioned as a united nation? Your favourite Marathas fought for maharashtra, not for Bharat. No kingdom in the history of India did anything for the complete India that exists today. People like you are continuing that legacy by distorting history. You are living in a dream world; unfortunately when you wake up you will find yourself in a real nightmare, when civil war rages in our unfortunate country. (I pray to God that people like you open their eyes before such a thing happens.)
