The first Madhava Rao excommunicated Sakho Moreshwar Belsare Joshi Kulkarni of Jejuri and confiscated his Kulkarni and Joshi watan because he did not observe mourning for a death in another branch of his family. Copies of the order were sent to government officers and the Brahman community of Jejuri.¹³ In 1789-90 during the administration of Madhava Rao II the Prabhus were ordered to desist from pronouncing Vedic \*mantras\* and other practices peculiar to Brahmans.
