Sikhs and Marathas organised themselves in the eighteenth century. Support the statement giving valid reasons. briefly class 7

Answer 1

Answer:

Sikhs and Marathas organized themselves in the eighteenth century very nicely. The grand army of the Sikhs was known as Dal Khalsa and it was divided into small Jathas (military troops), later known as Misls. Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj founded the Maratha Empire with the help of peasant-pastoralists known as Kunbis and warrior families known as Deshmukhs. He had ministers belonging to the Peshwa families, who ruled the empire after him.
