Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's Death Anniversary

Shivaji Bhosale I, who passed away on 3 April 1680 at Fort Raigad, aged 50, was an Indian warrior-king and a member of the Bhonsle Maratha clan. Shivaji carved out an enclave from the declining Adilshahi sultanate of Bijapur that formed the genesis of the Maratha Empire. In 1674, he was formally crowned as the chhatrapati (emperor) of his realm at Raigad.
