  1. When the Peshwa received the news of these battles, Shreemant
    Nanasahib himself felt elated at the exceptional valour of the Marathas. In
    his congratulatory reply to the Sardars and soldiers, he himself wrote:
  2. शाबास तुमच्या हिमतीची नि दिलेरी रुस्तुमीची
    दक्षिणच्या फौजांनीं गंगा यमुना पार होऊना पठाणांशीं
    युद्ध करून फते पावावें ठे कर्म लहान सहान नव्हे
    तुन्ही कनिष्ट कृत कर्में दौलतीचे स्तंभ आहात
    इराण तुराण पावे तो लौकिक झाला वझीर पळाला असता
    फिरोन फतेच्या मसनदीवर बसविला
    (Bravo, well done! All praise to your intrepidity and valour! That the
    Southern armies should cross the Ganges and Jamuna and win a glorious
    victory over the Pathans in the open battlefield, is neither a small nor a
    commonplace thing! You are single- minded loyal men of action, the pillars
    of the (Maratha) Empire! Your fame has spread far beyond Iran and Turan.
    While the Queen (on the chessboard) had run astray, (you) have installed
    her at the vantage position once again!
    The Marathas humbled time and again the Hauteur and pride of the
    true-born and the greatest Muslims too!
  3. A common misleading statement is very often to be seen in the
    histories written not only by the Muslim, the English, the Portuguese and
    such other writers who are naturally inimical (hostile) towards the
    Marathas, and have always tried to disparage them and to detract from their
    glorious deeds, but also by some of the Hindu writers who evince a slavish
    mentality and only 'look' and 'write' (without using any independent
    judgment of their own) — a statement that purports to say:
    'One important cause why later on the Muslims were often defeated in
    India and why the Maratha could set in the process of disintegration of the
    Muslim empire under their crushing blows, was that the Muslims of the
    latter days had lost much of the 'original' and 'real' blood and spirit of the
    early Arab, Mongol, Turkish, Irani, Durani, Afghan, Moghal invaders.
    Because of the racy climate beyond the Himalayas, big, rushing rivers, hilly
    and snowy territory and their hardy and robust constitution, which was the
    result of their spending whole lives in constant warfare, and such other
    reasons, the comparatively more civilized and 'hence' milder and 'feebler'
