Finally it is going to happen. It was long awaited.... most excited about it. I know some people involved in this effort of getting recognition. Immense hardwork and dedication.
It will be 5th UNESCO Heritage in MH. Ajanta, Ellora, Elephanta, Bombay colonial architecture and now Maratha forts.
Of the 14 forts in the list, I have been to about 6 of them. Hope to visit all of them one day.

As usual, a lot of people will make random info videos on Maratha Forts now. Based on research done using newspaper columns and Wikipedia... just wait for 2 days and you will see that your YT/Insta feed will be full of such video suggestions.
I might not get time immediately... but I will definitely make a video on it. Even if it comes late, I guarantee you will find many unique insights and useful information in it.
Just wait for it.

It's definitely a long awaited and a very welcome achievement.
This is the PIB release today. Look at its drafting.
The long press release, about Maratha forts, has many names of today's politicians (which is totally fine) but not even a word on Shivaji, who created these forts 350 years ago....!
Ye baat kuchh hajam nahi hui.

I agree—and disagree.
Yes, coaching institutes spend crazy money on ads. A front-page slot in The Hindu? About ₹10 lakh for just Delhi edition for one day. Nationwide? May be ₹20–30 lakh. No wonder politicians raise eyebrows.
But let’s be clear—students don’t join coaching by choice. They come because schools fail them. The system leaves them underprepared, and the competition is brutal. What else can they do?
So no, coaching isn’t the villain. It’s a symptom of a deeper rot: the collapse of our formal education system. The worse the schools get, the more coaching thrives.
Blaming coaching for the crisis is like blaming a painkiller for the pain. You want fewer coaching centres? Fix the schools. The demand for coaching will drop on its own.

Also, just a fun side note—look at how differently Indian Express and The Hindu covered the same speech.
Indian Express did straight-up reporting. It laid out all the key points—coaching institutes, exam patterns, rote learning, child development, national education policy (NEP) —the whole package.
The Hindu, though? Total pick-and-choose vibes. They zoomed in on the anti-coaching parts and kinda skimmed over the bigger stuff about the overall mess in our education system. And it is also silent on NEP related points.
Makes you wonder—why such a different take on the same speech? Bias? Priorities? Editorial mood?
What do you think’s going on here?
