The exhibition has been devised under the guidance of Shri. François Goutier, a French Journalist and has 16 pictures based on historical events that revive history related to establishment of Hindvi Swaraj. The pictures depict various incidents from history like the places under governance of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, how did he reach Rajgad after his escape from Agra etc. through maps, besides ancient documents from Mughal regime in 16th century. Shri. Goutier has managed to acquire these documents from Bikaner museum in the State of Rajasthan with great difficulties. (Why are Indian journalists not interested in presenting our glorious history like this journalist from another country? – Editor). Shri. V. S. Bhatnagar, retired professor from Rajasthan University carried out research and obtained this historical proof. A committee of painters was appointed to prepare paintings based on the history.
The exhibition has been held by FACT as the organization feels that in the present time, the qualities of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj are required to be imbibed in today’s leaders and politicians for good governance and people should visit the exhibition in large numbers.
