Defamation of Chhatrapati Shivaraya in a book by Eigen B in English

Mumbai :  Shivaji Maharaj's young wife kept him under constant pressure; therefore, he became so frustrated that he started behaving very illogically. Finally, he sent his son Sambhaji to Mughals for work to maintain peace at home. Mughals took advantage of this and used Sambhaji against ‘Swaraj’. The above matter, which is historically untrue and defaming Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, has been published in a book titled ‘Chhatrapati Shivaji :the warrior who won back lost Pride and honour of Hindus’ authored by Eigen B. This English book is being sold all over the country creating furor amongst Hindus.  (Under the Mughal regime of Congress rulers, Hindus are not united; therefore, anyone and everyone is daring to defame great national leaders in such manner. There is no alternative to establishment of Hindu Nation [Governed by ‘sattvik’ rulers for the welfare of the world] ! – Editor SP)

This book has been published by ‘Manoj Publications’ from New Delhi. On every page of this book, totally false things about Shivaji Maharaj have been published distorting history. The above news has been published on the website of daily newspaper ‘Maharashtra Times’. It has been stated in the news that -

1. In this book, reference of Chhatrapati Rajaram’s mother ‘Soyarabai’ is made as ‘Shobhabai, Shivaji’s young wife’.

2. Dadaji Kondadev was looking after management of few Mughal forts and as ‘side business’ was also managing few forts of Adil Shah. At the same time, Shahaji was serving Nizam’s empire and he handed over the responsibility of Pune region to Dadaji. Indians showed such extreme foolishness. As a result, the British could easily take over India in few years. (It is distorted history of Hindu kings written to create confusion amongst Hindus. Is the Congress Government going to take any action against such writers? Hindus must pressurize the Govt. for taking action against such anti-nationals ! – Editor SP)

3. The writer has made an inference that Shahajiraje was responsible for the British ruling over India. (James Laine had written a book defaming Shivaraya when Sambhaji Brigade held ‘Bhandarkar Oriental Science Research Institute’ from Pune responsible and attacked the Institute; where are they now? – Editor SP)  

4. Hindi edition of this book is also available in market. ‘Manoj Publications’ has published two more books on Shivaraya. Address of this Publication’s Office in Delhi and contact number has been given in the book. When the office is called on that number, the person answering the call just informed that ‘the writer is not alive now’.

5. When it was confirmed about the objectionable portion of the book with few scholars, they also said that the distortion and perversion of truth is serious and especially feared that when non-Marathi children would read such books, wrong picture of Chhatrapati Shivaraya would be inculcated in their mind.
