RAJARSHI SHAHU CHATRAPATI : PATRAVAYAHAR ANI KAYADE

The available paperwork related to Rajarshee Shahu Maharaj’s social work include many of his letters. Some of them are written by him. They are very rare and in original form. The correspondence between him and Ambedkar genuinely helps to understand the former style and social and political aspects. The letters allow us to understand the caring and sharing that these two great men had. Shahu Maharaj calls Dr. Ambedkar as ‘Lokmanya Ambedkar’ in one of his letters. Dr. Ambedkar on the other hand calls him ‘The Pillar of Social Democracy in India.’
