Pune: The true history of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj should not only be known to Shiv devotees in Maharashtra but also to people across the country. Additionally, his thoughts and ideals should serve as inspiration for the soldiers of our nation. With this objective, this year, Shiv Jayanti will be celebrated at the border with the Border Security Force (BSF) and Indian Army personnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maratha Tiger Force organizes the celebration of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj\u2019s birth anniversary in different states every year. Following this tradition, on February 22, a grand historical event will be organized at Shri Tanot Rai Mata Temple in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan, near the India-Pakistan border, in collaboration with the BSF. This information was shared by Sandeep Lahane Patil, the Founder President of Maratha Tiger Force and Chief Organizer of the Rajasthan Shiv Jayanti Utsav Committee, during a press conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prominent attendees at the press conference included Santosh Shinde (Spokesperson, Sambhaji Brigade, Rajasthan Shiv Jayanti Utsav Committee Member), Sharad Londhe Patil (Co-Chief Organizer), Anil More, Mahesh Tele Patil, Vijayrao Kakade (Head, Bharat Kranti Mission), Vijay Appa Barate, Vishal Lahane Patil, Ramesh Patil, Yashwant Jagtap, and Venkatesh Deshmukh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sharad Londhe and local Shiv devotees in Rajasthan are actively involved in organizing the event. Various organizations, including Akhil Maratha Samaj Pune, Bharat Kranti Mission, Bishnoi Samaj Gas Agency Staff, and Rashtriya Gas Agency Workers Union, are supporting the initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The celebration will feature cultural performances reflecting Maharashtrian traditions, Shiv lectures, awards, and a felicitation ceremony. Notably, several BSF officers and personnel, as well as social activists and Shiv devotees from Maharashtra and Rajasthan, will be honored with five awards named after Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This grand event at Shri Tanot Rai Mata Temple is expected to be attended by political and social leaders from both Maharashtra and Rajasthan, including the Governor of Rajasthan, who has also been invited. The primary goal of this initiative is to spread awareness about Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj\u2019s legacy, his governance, and the establishment of Swarajya throughout India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additionally, on February 19, a Shiv Jayanti celebration will take place at Birla Auditorium in Jaipur, organized by Bharat Kranti Mission under the leadership of Vijayrao Kakade. The event will witness the participation of ministers, MPs, MLAs, and other dignitaries from Rajasthan and Maharashtra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sandeep Lahane Patil has also reiterated the longstanding demand that Shiv Jayanti on February 19 should be declared a National Holiday across India. He emphasized that just as national holidays are observed for other great leaders, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj\u2019s birth anniversary should be officially recognized and celebrated at the government level nationwide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
