Answer:
Born in 1675, Tarabai was the daughter of Hambir Rao Mohite, the famed Sar Senapati (commander-in-chief) of Shivaji’s Maratha army. Fiercely independent as a young girl, she was well-trained in sword fighting, archery, cavalry, military strategy, diplomacy and all other subjects of statecraft.
A woman who witnessed the rise and fall of the Marathas, Tarabai was just eight-years-old when she was married to Shivaji’s younger son Rajaram. This was an era when the Mughals and the Marathas were constantly at war for control over the Deccan.
In 1674, Shivaji had been crowned the ruler of the independent Maratha kingdom established by him. Under his able leadership, the empire quickly became a key political force in India at the height of Mughal power.

Answer:
✨Maharani Tarabai✨
Rani Tarabai, the daughter-in-law of Shivaji and an indomitable and shrewd queen.
Rani Tarabai was the wife of Rajaram, Shivaji’s son from his second wife Soyrabai. After Shivaji’s death in 1680, his first son Sambhaji took over the throne. As he was captured (and later killed), Rajaram was brought into power. He died an untimely death in 1700, leaving behind an heir – Shivaji II, who was only four years old at the time. In his name, Tarabai became the de facto ruler.
Tarabai was a brave, ambitious and level-headed ruler, who put her kingdom above everything else. She concentrated on fighting the Mughals and was an earnest politician who never went against her own family to attain power. Even after her leadership was snatched away, she continued working in the government.She refused to stand still and continued to influence politics until her death. Had she not stepped up after her husband’s death and taken over the reins, the Maratha Empire would have disintegrated long before. Had she been able to remain in power, her kingdom may have remained united.Rani Tarabai was ahead of her times and was forced to kill her ambition despite being capable. The fact that Shahu and Peshwa Balaji had to reach treaties with her time and again is proof of how much influence she had on state politics. The only reason for this was that men in power did not have the sense and strength to accept an able ruler: just because she was a woman.
