Comment: Studies in Anglo Maratha Relations is a snippet, which is not a good thing, but the snippet also does not appear to contain discussion of the term--it merely mentions it. The other book, ok the other "book", is a crappy collection of Wikipedia articles, and that is certainly not to be used as a source. Drmies (talk) 14:33, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
