Raghunath Rao (Raghunath Rao Dabhade)

Raghunath Rao, also known as Raghunath Rao Dabhade, was an influential figure in Indian history during the 18th century. He was a Maratha general and a prominent member of the Dabhade clan. Notably, he played a significant role in Maratha politics and military campaigns, particularly during the period of conflict with the British East India Company. His ambitions for power led to important alliances and confrontations, illustrating the complexities of regional power dynamics in India before British dominance fully took hold. Rao's actions contributed to shaping the historical landscape of the Indian subcontinent at that time.
