Hi Kushi, First: Hindi-Marathi is already available on Google. I think you should reason out the usefulness of developing it in Apertium. A priori, it does not seem like a project that is going to be especially promising.
As for your current question, why should the pair be created again from scratch? Have you seen something wrong on it? In principle, I don't see at all why the work that has been done before should be wasted. I would do it only if, after analysing it, it turns out that it is appalling (which would be weird). I don't know Hindi, but from what I saw two years ago, the morphological analyser seems to have a lot of room for improvement. It might make sense to concentrate on it and its morphological disambiguator. This would help to subsequently develop translators between low-resource Indo-Aryan languages and Hindi.
