A Peshwa was the equivalent of a modern Prime Minister in the Maratha Empire of the Indian subcontinent. Originally, the Peshwas served as subordinates to the Chhatrapati (the Maratha king), but later, they became the de facto leaders of the Marathas, and the Chatrapati was reduced to a nominal ruler.

Scindia (anglicized from Shinde and also spelled as Scindhia, Sindhia, Sindia, Sindhe, Sinde,) was a Hindu Kunbi Maratha dynasty that ruled the Gwalior State. They originally come from Kunbi caste[1] The Gwalior state was a part of the Maratha Confederacy in the 18th and 19th centuries, and a princely state of the colonial British government during the 19th and the 20th centuries. After India's independence in 1947, the members of the Scindia family became politicians.
