NCERT Textbooks Highlight Marathas' Role in Indian History

Imagine history books were like a puzzle, and for a long time, some important pieces, like the Marathas, were missing.

Now, the books are being updated to include more about the Marathas, especially their fight against the British.

One ruler, Serfoji II, is being highlighted for his schools and hospitals.

The battles between the Marathas and the British, especially the one in Delhi, were a turning point, showing how strong the Marathas were and how the British eventually took control.

The Marathas were also inclusive, meaning they included people from all backgrounds in their armies and society.
