Management is pervasive. It is applicable in all walks of life. As far as higher education is concerned, most of the management lessons, thoughts, theories and principles that are taught in higher educational institutions are predominantly of foreign authors. Maharashtra has a varied heritage in a plethora of areas. One of the most important being Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj who established 'Swarajya' & laid down several plans, policies, and procedures for its strategic management. As far as higher education is concerned i.e., graduation and post-graduation, there are hardly any subjects or syllabus which include Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's thoughts and practices in Management. To study the perception of Students towards the inclusion of Shivaji Maharaj thoughts and practices a study was conducted in the Kalyan Dombivili region. The study consisted of both Primary as well as Secondary data. The Primary data was collected from students as well as parents in Kalyan Dombivili region through a Structured Questionnaire using a 5-point Likert Scale. The Null Hypotheses were tested using the non-Parametric test, Mann-Whitney U test and the findings are presented in research paper. The present paper will be useful to Students, Universities as suggestions are given towards the implementation of thoughts and practices of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in the syllabus of Management.
