  • 3. Effects of British Rule
    3. Effects of British Rule Establishment of East India Company : We have seen that due to geographical discoveries, the European powers reached the Indian coast. All the European including Portuguese, Dutch, French and British entered the race for capturing the Indian market. When the British came to India for trade purpose, the Portuguese had already settled here and they gave a bitter resistance. Later friendly relations developed between them. But, to establish the domination over India, the British had to face opposition from French, Dutch and local rulers. British and Marathas : Mumbai was the main centre of British in western India. They were trying to acquire the nearby territories but the Marathas had strong hold over it. After the death of Peshwa Madhavrao, his uncle, Raghunathrao approached for help from the British due to his greed for Peshwaship. This led to the entrance of the British in Maratha politics. During 1774 to 1818, three wars were fought between the Marathas and the British. During the first war the Marathas unitedly faced the British and hence proved superior. In 1782, with the Treaty of Salbai, the first Anglo-Maratha war came to an end. Subsidiary Alliance : In 1798, Lord Wellesley arrived in India as Governor General. His objective was to establish the British Dominion all over India. For this he signed the Subsidiary Alliance with many Indian rulers. According to this Alliance the Indian rulers were assured of British military help. There were some terms laid on them. The Indian rulers have to maintain British army in their court and have to pay cash or part of their territory to the company for its maintenance.

Taraporevala Sons & Co., Hornby Road, Fort, Bombay. PREFACE It is well known that for a hundred and fifty years after the foundation of the East India Company their representatives in ·India merely confined their activities to trade, and did not con· cern themselves with the game of building an empire in the East. But after the middle of the 18th century, a severe war broke out in Europe between England and France, now known as the Seven Years' War (1756-1763), which soon affected all the colonies and trading centres which the two nations already possessed in various parts of the globe. In the end Britain came out victorious, having scored brilliant successes both in India and America. The British triumph in India was chiefly due to Clive's masterly strategy on the historic battlefields in the Presidencies of Madras and Bengal. It should be remembered in this connection that there was then not one common or supreme authority or control over the three British establishments or Presidencies of Bengal, Madras and Bombay.

The battle of Plassey (1757) followed by that of Buxar (1764) gave the Company access to the revenues of the subas of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa and a subsequent edge in the contest for paramountcy in Hindustan. Control over revenues resulted in a gradual shift in the orientation of the Company‟s agenda – from commerce to land revenue – with important consequences. This chapter will trace the development of the Company‟s rise to power in Bengal, the articulation of commercial policies in the context of Mercantilism that developed as an informing ideology in Europe and that found limited application in India by some of the Company‟s officials.

While Raghunath Rao, brother of Balaji Baji Rao was in lookout to become Peshwa himself. After death of Madhav Rao in 1772, British caused the first war with Marathas. First Anglo-Maratha War (1775-82): The immediate cause for first Anglo Maratha War was English interference in the internal affairs of Marathas. The then Maratha Peshwa, Narayan Rao died without an heir. The birth of a posthumous son to Narayan Rao then drove Raghunath Rao to desperation and he eventually signed the Treaty of Surat in 1775 with the Bombay government with hopes to gain the throne with the help of English troops. By the treaty of Surat, Raghunatha Rao had promised to cede Salsette and Bassein, and also refrain from forming an alliance with the Company enemies. In the First Anglo Maratha war that followed, none of the two parties were gaining ground and finally realized the futility of the struggle.

  • Chapter I the Establishment and Consolidation of the Baroda State a Historical Perspective
    CHAPTER I THE ESTABLISHMENT AND CONSOLIDATION OF THE BARODA STATE A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE 2 CHAPTER I THE ESTABLISHMENT AND CONSOLIDATION OF THE BARODA STATE: A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE The Baroda State was one of the most important and strongest States of India in the first half of the 20th century. It was impor­ tant in all respects because of the work and efficient administration of Sir Sayaji Rao III and the valuable support of his ministers, the first of wham was Sir Raja T. Madhavrao. To understand the administra­ tive structure of the Baroda State (1881-1939) it is necessary to trace its origin, know its previous rulers and administration. Historically speaking the origin of the State is to be found in the period of the disintegration of the Mughal Empire (1658-1707) and the rise of the great Maratha rule under the great leader Shivaji and his descendants, the kings of Satara. In 1644, Shivaji, the founder of the Maratha Empire attacked Surat against the Mughal Empire with a view to getting wealth, establishing the Maratha Empire and acquiring booty. This was the first contact of the Marathas with the people of Gujarat. Again Shivaji invaded in 1670. This invasion was no more than a raid, but it served to bring Marathas into the State. After the death of Aurangzeb (1707), the Marathas started to interfere directly 3 in the affairs of Gujarat. The frequent and glorious achievements of Shivaji and the Maratha generals like Khanderao Dabhade, the Marathas laid their foundation in Gujarat.
