Honouring a great leader - Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj was a brave and visionary leader who fought against the Mughal Empire and established the Maratha Empire in western India. He is revered by many as a symbol of courage, patriotism, and National pride. Celebrating his Jayanti is a way of paying tribute to his contributions to Indian history and culture. Teachers explained the students about the life of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and his great achievements through a PowerPoint Presentation.
