Subehdar Tanajirao Malusare declared directly,
"Āmhi Shur Mard Kshatri, nāhi bhinār marnālā!"
He was NOT Koli, and Kolis need to stop getting misguided by European & Leftist Sub-Alternist charlatans.
Not even one single primary contemporary source has EVER called him a Koli.

Kolis are nowhere called Kshatriyas or anything near that in the entire contemporary Tulsidas Shahir Powada on Battle of Kondāna, commissioned days after the martyrdom of Subehdar Tanaji.
Kolis were Avarnas for the Marathas as shown here: "Twelve men of Tribe (Caste) Unknown"

Tanajirao frequently calls himself a Kshatriya ONLY.
& His taunts to other "Kshatriyas" to wear bangles or draw their swords is responded by Jadhavs, Chavhan-Mohites, Dhags, Gaikwads, Shirkes & Mahadiks drawing out their swords.
All of these are Kulin Maratha Kshatriya Houses.

Kolis made it clear they were against the Maratha Empire when they indirectly insulted Tanajirao Malusare and his Maratha band stating "Dogs of Shivāji, don't come near Simhagad".
As late as 1704 CE they were fighting on behalf of Mughals. (Battle of Narmada for example).

Kolis with their chief Khandojī Nak were serving Mughals as petty gatekeepers at Kondana.
Tanajirao berated them and declared he will conquer Kondhana.
All Kolis fell at the feet of Maratha Subehdar Tanajirao and began to literally cry in awe of Tanaji's bravery and manliness!

Ackworth faked translations of Tulsidas Shahir's original Powada.
This mention of Marathas as "peasants rude" is Ackworth's own imaginary translation, used to call Maratha army subaltern.
The original Powada clearly ONLY states 50 Men (Pannās Mānnsa), no mention of any peasants.

Koli community needs to stop their members from Wikipedia editting and focus on spreading their own glorious brave history.
Neither Angre Shankhapals, Nor Kanks, Nor Surgana Pawars, Nor Malusares, NOT a single Maratha Clan has anything or wants anything to do with Kolis.

The first Maratha Lord to hire Kolis extensively as henchmen, labourers, scouts, and various other diverse roles was Sar-I-Khel Kanhojiraje Angre as they were abundant in Konkan areas.
David Hardiman is a sub-alternist who calls Tanaji Malusare as a Koli without any proof.

We must not let marxist sub-alternist foreign charlatans like Hardiman, S. Roy and S. Chandra sow seeds of hatred between our Castes.
