V. Mavji, \*Shivaji's Swarājya\*, pp. 30–42, vol. xxii of \*J.B.B.R.A.S.\* ; also Sarkar, \*Shivaji and His Times\*, pp. 455 ff. In modern days the word \*Svarāj\*, or \*Svarājya\* (Swuraje) has acquired a new meaning. In the mouth of ‘moderate’ Indian politicians it is supposed to denote only a pious aspiration towards self-government of the colonial type. To the ‘extremists’ it signifies the immediate and violent emancipation of India from British rule and complete independence.
