Parashuramrao Shrinivas I (30 August 1777-11 June 1848) was the ruler of Aundh State from his birth in 1777 to his death in 1848.[3][1][4][2]
Life
[edit]Parashuramrao's father died the day he was born and as such he succeeded to the Throne at birth. Parashuramrao alias Thotepant was riotous and creating riots with the help of Ramoshis kept by him in his service.
Thus, whilst only twelve days old, Parshuram Shrinivas (Thote Pant), became a Pratinidhi. His mother thought that he was an inauspicious child, having 'killed' his father, though he was actually born a day after his death! In any case, she shunned and neglected him. Even as a child, Thote Pant was extremely strong-willed.[2]
Parashuramrao had created tumult in the Peshwa region between the Warana and Neera. A battle was fought between Bapu Gokhale and Parashuramrao in March 1806, in which Parashuramrao was seriously injured and was taken prisoner by the Peshwas. Parshuramrao Shrinivas, known as a valiant soldier and oppressive ruler, was accused of mismanaging the state due to said actions.[1]
Later Parashuramrao was ultimately released from prison and assumed authority over his state yet again.
After the fall of Peshwa rule, the British East India company entered separate treaties in 1820 with all the Jagirdars who were nominally subordinate to the Raja of Satara.[5][6] He adopted the title of Pant in 1846, on which occasion he paid to the Raja of Satara, married two wives, from whom he later separated.
He had no son and therefore, he adopted a child of one of his relatives, who was named Shrinivasrao Parshuram (1833-1901). Shrinivasrao Parshuram succeeded him and was considered an erudite and well beloved person. He introduced primary and secondary schools in his state, and was himself a Councillor in the Legislative Assembly of Bombay.[1]
Parashuramrao later died in 1848 and was succeeded by his adopted son Shrinivasrao Parashuram whom he adopted in 1843.[7][4][2]
