Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj, commonly known as Rajarshi Shahu, was widely regarded as a genuine democracy and social reformer. He was the first Maharaja of the princely state of Kolhapur, and he was a priceless pearl in Maharashtra's history. Shahu Maharaj, who was greatly influenced by the efforts of social reformer Jyotiba Phule, was an excellent leader and able ruler who was involved in numerous innovative and ground-breaking actions during his reign. On May 6, 1922, the famous social reformer Chhatrapati Shahuji Maharaj died. His eldest son Rajaram III succeeded him as Maharaja of Kolhapur. Unfortunately, the changes undertaken by Chhatrapati Shahu soon ceased and faded due to a lack of capable leadership to carry on the legacy.
