Marathas had three major kingdoms: (a) Peshwas of Pune, (b) Holkars of Indore and (c) Scindias of Gwalior. Is it not true:
(a) These kings were fighting with each other all the time and killed so many of their fellow Marathis in the process. Don't believe me! Just go and check wikipedia. With so many fights amongst themselves they had no time or energy left to fight britishers.
(b) They were very opportunistic and collaborated with any foreign ruler whenever needed. Scindias were a great collaborator of the British and even got Jhansi ki Rani killed in the process.
With all these 'fabulous' things about Marathis, actually I am extremely ashamed of these people and am embarrassed to call them compatriots.

marathi manus should not only be given 80% reservation in maharastra but also 50% for all of india... as they have suffered from northies as well as southies indeed they should be given SCST quota. Now there sole talent is abusing UPites biharies n tamilians.. which is a true sense of patriotism... added to their educational qualification should be written "descendents of shivagi".. which should get them job anywhere... and they should also be given extra merit as thier farmers and poor junta who have nothin to eat do thier excretional activities in well furnished toilets!!!!
