Wagh Nakhe, a Ganimi Kava significant in the establishment of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's empire, has been agreed upon to be brought from Britain to India. This Wagh Nakhe, a symbol of Shivaji's valor, will now serve as a glimpse of the Maharaj not only for Maharashtra but for all Shivaji enthusiasts in India, as announced by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde through a video conference system.
The agreement to bring Wagh Nakhe to India was signed by the Director of the Victoria and Albert Museum, Tristram Hunt, in the presence of Cultural Affairs Minister Sudhir Mungantiwar, Industries Minister Uday Samant, Principal Secretary of the Cultural Department Vikas Kharge, and Director of Archaeology and Museums Tejas Garge.
This Wagh Nakhe will stay in India from November 2023 to November 2026 and be displayed in various museums in Maharashtra for people to view. This includes state archaeological department museums in Satara, Nagpur, and Kolhapur, as well as the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Museum in Mumbai.
Chief Minister Mr. Shinde expressed that this moment is historic for all Chhatrapati Shivaji enthusiasts, for Maharashtra, and for the nation. He also praised Minister Mungantiwar and his associates in the Cultural Department for their efforts in accomplishing this initiative.
The Chief Minister also mentioned that the younger generation will be inspired by Shivaji Maharaj's valor, as they tread the path set by the Maharaj. He congratulated the State Cultural Affairs Department, the Central Government, and the British Government for this agreement.
The decision to bring back the Tiger Claw to India was made by Minister Mr. Mungantiwar. He initiated correspondence with the Victoria and Albert Museum on 15th April 2023, and his efforts have now finally come to fruition.
Overall, this is a significant gesture that will not only provide a glimpse of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, but also inspire the younger generations to follow in the Maharaj's footsteps.
