who was called the second founder of maratha kingdom
Balaji Vishwanath Balaji Vishwanath (Bhatt) (1662â€“1720), better known as Peshwa Balaji Vishwanath, was the sixth Peshwa and the first of a series of hereditary Peshwas (Marathi for Prime Minister) hailing from the Chitpavan Kokanastha Brahmin Hindu family who gained effective control of the Maratha Empire during the 18th century. Balaji Vishwanath assisted a young Maratha Emperor Shahu to consolidate his grip on a kingdom that had been racked by civil war and persistent attack by the Mughals under Aurangzeb. He was called "the second founder of the Maratha State."[1] Later,his son Bajirao became the peshwa. His second son Chimnaji Appa won the vasai fort.
Mahātmā According to some authors Rabindranath Tagore is said to have used on march 6, 1915, this title for Gandhi.[2] Some claim that he was called Mahatma by the residents of Gurukul Kangadi in April 1915,[3] and he in turn called the founder Munshiram a Mahatma (who later became Swami Shraddhananda). However, a document honoring him with the title "Mahatma" on Jan 21, 1915, in Jetpur, Gujarat, by Nautamlal Bhagvanji Mehta is preserved at the National Gandhi Museum in New Delhi, India.[4] This document remains the earliest record of the title "Mahatma" being bestowed upon Gandhi. The use of the term Mahatma in Jainism to denote a class of lay priests, has been noted since the 17th century. A Mahatma is someone who practices Trikaranasuddhi.[5]
