Udayanraje Bhosale

Udayanraje Bhosale (born 24 February 1966) is an Indian politician serving as a member of the Lok Sabha, the lower house of the Parliament of India, from Maharashtra since 2024 from Satara. He is a member of the Bharatiya Janata Party. Bhosale is the 13th holder of the titulary title of Chhatrapati which was adopted by the Maratha king Chhatrapati Shivaji Bhosale upon his coronation in 1674. He is addressed as Chhatrapati by some in the media, however the title is entirely ceremonial and in the role of a pretender.
