Aurangabad, March 4: There were many warriors in the history. What did they fight for? Wealth, property, money and the power was their first priority. However, the common man in the reign of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj fought for state. The great king fought not for his personal benefits but for the welfare of the Maratha state which was the real strength of his state, asserted teacher and writer Dr Sanjay Gaikwad here at a programme at Shahu Bhawan, recently.
