Anandadeo Bhatta and Gaga Bhatta played an important role in solving the intercaste dispute in Maharashtra related to ritual status, they were well known for solving ritual status issue during Shivaji Rajyabhishek.[1] During Peshwa Raj due to monopoly of Chitpavans in Pune, many families of Deshastha Brahmins and Gaud Saraswat Brahmins migrated to the newly formed Malwa state(Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh) and occupied higher administrative posts.[2] According to the Economic Times, The Marathi population in Uttar Pradesh is now mainly concentrated in Kanpur, Varanasi, Prayagraj, Jhansi and Lucknow.[3]
