Shivteerth: A great place to rediscover history

3:18 PM Posted by ukmad


History of the great Maratha King Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaj is being showcased in a one of its kind unique park on the grounds of the Miliraty Mahadev, named "Shri Shivteerth".

The park consists of 11 models or replicas of the forts of Shivaji Maharaj and all this has been possible, thanks to the Maratha Light Infantry Regimental Centre (MLIRC) & Shivapratishtan.

The layout of the park has been made after a through study of all the forts. The park has been designed as per the original map to the last detail. A person, who reaches a certain model of a fort, will know the way he has to take for reaching the fort. Thanks to the huge sign boards that are erected on the designated routes at the park that keep informing all about the route to reach the fort.

The models of the fort are built with concrete and hence can stand wind and rain and they exactly area replica of the original. The signboards just next to the replica will give full details of the fort.

Its 9.45 pm and the statue of Shivaji is till on its way to Shivteerth, Its now on Congress road, Near First Gate. This huge delay has been caused due to the immense enthusiasm of the people who are welcoming the statute in grand manner.
The statue will reach Shivteerth only after 11 pm. It must have been really a long journey for Shivaji.

The Shivaji Statue to be installed at the Shivteerth, military Mahadev is now approaching the Shivteerth. While I am typing this Statue is now at Tilak Chowk. The crowd is getting bigger and bigger as the procession is going forward. Shivaji is getting a Welcome at all the street corners.

The procession, which began from Bogarves, will reach Shivteerth by the late afternoon via Shahpur Congress Road. The weather here has become very cloudy and the sun is playing hide and seek here. In all it’s a nice atmosphere to dance with the Dhol and tasha and say "Shivaji Maharaj ki Jai"
