•Jain Muni Acharya Nayan Padmasagar claimed Maharani Tararani belonged to the Jain community, stating she was born to destroy Aurangzeb.
•The statement was made at a Jain community program in Mumbai and is expected to ignite social and political controversy.
•History expert Indrajit Sawant strongly criticized the claim, asserting Tararani was the daughter of Hambirrao Mohite and daughter-in-law of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.
•Sawant urged Jain Munis not to make such statements without historical knowledge and to avoid defaming Tararani's history.
•Acharya Nayan Padmasagar also stated that every person in India is a Hindu, regardless of their religion, and called for banning religions that teach violence.
