Raigad is one of the best places in the history of the Hindu Swarajya, 2 km north of Mahad. The fort is 5 feet high above the sea level.
HISTORY OF RAIGAD:
Raigad is surrounded by mountains. To the north and east, the river basins are
spread. The Gandhari river flows to the west. To the east, Lingana, Agnea, the
sky is clear, while Rajgad, Torana is to the south. Mumbai, Pune and Satara are
the same distance from Raigad. This is a link between the rows of Sahyadri
forts. Since Raigad is surrounded by mountains by nature (as well), Maharaj
chose Raigad, the capital of the western mountains, to leave Pune to escape the
enemy attack.
History: The ancient name of Raigada was 'Riri'. Europeans
used to call it 'Gibraltar in the East'. Gibraltar's Thane is as invincible as
Raigad Ajinkya, inaccessible. Five hundred years ago, when it had no form of
fortress and was merely a hill, it had two names Rasivata 'and' Tans'. Due to
its height and height, it was also known as 'Nandadip'. In the Nizamism, Raigad
was used to keep prisoners. Moray's chief Yashwantrao Moray fled Jawali and
stayed on Raigad while Prataprao Moray fled to Vijapura. Maharaj laid siege to
Rairais, ie, Raigadas on April 8, and in the month of May, Rairai took over.
Mullah Ahmed, the well-wisher of Kalyan, came to Bijapur with the treasure and
learned that the Maharaja was on his way. They looted the treasure and brought
it to Raigad and used that treasure for the construction of the fort.
The head of Raigada is convenient and sufficient to make the
capital. It is the most difficult place in the region where the enemy finds it
difficult. This place is also close to sea transportation. So the Maharaja
chose this fort for the capital. Member Bakhar says, “The king is very dark and
very dark. One and a half villages high, as per the four-sided fort. The grass
does not grow on the rainy season and the stone tassive is the only one.
Daulatabad is a solid stronghold on earth, but it is a little high. Dishon was
very satisfied and spoke as he was twice taller than Daulatabad. This is where
the table should be built. ' This Durgadurgeshwara is referred to by 3
different names. Raigad, Ryari, Islamgarh, Nandadeep,
Jambudwip, Weed, Zodiac, Badenur,
Raigiri, Bhiwagad, Reddy,
Shivanka, Rahir, The anointing of the Shivajiya of Gibraltar in
the East Shivarajibhishek The best occasion experienced by Raigad is the
coronation of the Maharaja, a significant event in the history of not only
Maharashtra but in India. Prior to the coronation rites on May 29, Maharaj saw
the Bhavani at Pratapgad. Three gems were offered to the goddess Chhatra, which
is worth Rs 5,000. Talks in the Rajya Sabha on the fort. The coronation was concluded
on Saturday, June 7, the first day of the purification of the 1st Shaku. September 7, Lalitha Panchami Ashwin S. Anand Samvatkar may have arrived on
this day in 1919. The real purpose behind this was to please as many people as
possible.
This coronation was accomplished at the hands of Nishalpuri
Gosavi. Poet Bhushan describes Raigad, 'Shivaji made it his home if Raigad fort
was the basis and luxury of all the forts. The fort is so huge and vast that it
has the glory of all three people. There are wells, lakes, wells on the fort.
After winning all the yavas, King Shivaji made capital on Raigad and achieved
the greatest success in the world by providing the people with his wishes. On
February 2, 1939, Anand Sawtsar Marg and Sambhaji Raj's Munj took place at
Raigad on Thursday. The suspect, Siddhartha Samvatasar Falgun, and Rajaram
Maharaj's Munj took place on Raigad on 7th March. Eight days later, Rajaram
Maharaj was married to Prataprao Gujar's daughter. The most tragic event
experienced by Raigad is that the Maharaja may die. Maharaj passed away on
April 7. Member Bakhar says, 'The earthquake happened that day. The eighth
direction is gone. The blood of Srisambhumahadevi lake is gone. ' 3 BC On
February 29, Sambhaji Maharaj's legislative throne took place at Raigada.
