Why did Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj want to establish Swarajya ?

We now understand why Chhatrapati Shivaji’s governance was referred to as Swa-Rajya, with ‘Swa’ meaning ‘mine’. It was a clever and captivating way of expressing ownership and unity. Under his rule, everyone acknowledged the positive and somewhat self-centred notion of having their own kingdom.

‘Shivaji University’ must be renamed to ‘Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj University’

If Nehru can be called ‘Pandit’, Gandhi can be called ‘Mahatma’, why is there objection to calling Shivaji Maharaj ‘Chhatrapati’ ?
