#DaughtersOfIndia pays tribute to ‘The Philosopher Queen’ - Ahilyabai Holkar.
Narrated by Ikshu Shinde
India has had many female rulers, warrior women and poet queens, but Ahilyabai Holkar commands more affection and respect for her accomplishments during her 30-year-long reign than any other does. She was noted for her piety, for her administrative ability, for her keen interest in all her people and for an extraordinary amount of building at holy sites all over the country. Her rule of Malwa in the 18th century is still cited as a model of benevolent and effective government.
#DaughtersOfIndia is a weekly series that will bring to you exceptional women of India, past and present, and their achievements.
This series is part of Indias' 75th Independence Day celebrations under the guidance of our Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji.
