Previous Year Question

Sant Tukaram was a contemporary of Shivaji. Tukaram was a prominent seventeenth-century Marathi saint and poet. Cambridge University Press places his life at approximately 1608–1649 CE. Shivaji was born in 1630 CE and died in 1680 CE. Thus, their lifetimes overlapped for nearly two decades. 

Fact: Tukaram was a major saint of the Varkari devotional tradition of Maharashtra and is famous for his Abhangas. Historian Richard M. Eaton also dates Tukaram to 1608–1649.
