Third Battle of Panipat Was Fought in January 1761 When the Mughal state was declining by internal strife and revolt, the Marathas were growing in the Western India. Before the collapse of Maratha military power in the battle of Panipat 1761, the Maratha state under its Prime Minister (Peshwa) had become the symbol of the rising Hindu nationalism. The first two Peshwas (Balaji Vishwanath and Baji Rao) built up a strong and unified warrior state. Baji Rao died in 1740 but the Marathas continued to dominate the Indian subcontinent. The Rise of Peshwa Balaji Bajirao before Battle of Panipat 1761: The office of Peshwa had become hereditary in the family of Vishwanath. When Peshwa Bajirao died in 1740, his eldest son Balaji Baji Rao succeeded him as Peshwa and supreme power had passed into the hands of the Prime Minister eclipsing the authority of Chattrapati. Baji Rao is remembered by the people of Maharashtra for his humane administration. The administration of justice was improved and the civil and military courts became the guardians of the people’s rights. Panchayat system was reformed and a strong police force was stationed at Poona. He gave attention to trade and built roads, inns and temples and stabilized the Maratha Empire. Grant and Duff have written that Peshwa Balaji Baji Rao was one of those princes whose good fortune originated in the cause anterior to their times, obtained its consequences in national prosperity and a higher degree of celebrity than they may fully merit. Strategic Mistakes by Peshwa Bajirao Balaji: Balaji Baji Rao became Peshwa after the death of Baji Rao in 1740. It is true that Balaji Baji Rao was not as efficient as his predecessors Baji Rao and Balaji Vishwanath; he took advantage of the influence of his cousin Sadashiva Bhau. It was under the guidance of Sadashiv Bhau that the Maratha power reached its climax in 1760. Sardesai has written that the Peshwa made a mistake by taking the British help in crushing the rebellious Maratha navy which was commanded by his own general Angiras. He neglected to claim Bhonsle’s claim in Bengal when Siraj-ud-Daula (ruler of Bengal) was being hard pressed by the British before the battle of Plassey. When the battle of Plassey was fought between the British and Siraj-ud-Daula, it was the duty of the Peshwa to help him. He could have broken the back of the British at Plassey. The Peshwa had no business to go beyond Satluj in the North. He also paid undue attention to the politics in Delhi. He could not understand the real nature of the British game. If he had understood the all India politics, he would have acted otherwise. The result of his mistakes was that the British were able to establish themselves in Bengal, Bihar and Orissa. Causes of the Battle of Panipat 1761: Raghuji Bhonsle overran the whole of Central India and invaded Bengal. Between 1752 to 1756, the Peshwa secured the rights of Chauth of north India from the Mughal emperor. Punjab was occupied in 1758 and the Maratha flag was unfurled over the fort of Attock. The Maratha flag dominated the Subcontinent from Himalayas and the Indus to the Peninsula. All the territory which the Marathas did not own paid tribute. Maratha Empire Extended to the North West India: The occupation of Punjab brought the Marathas into direct conflict with Ahmed Shah Durrani, the ruler of Afghanistan. The Marathas were ready to face the challenge. Thus, the famous third battle of Panipat was fought in January 1761. Ahmed Shah Abdali/Durrani commanded an army of 40,000 cavalry and 35,000 infantry. The Maratha commander Sadashiv Bhau had an army 55,000 cavalry and 15,000 infantry along with 15,000 Pindaris. The Marathas were expert in guerilla warfare but Sadashiv Bhau decided to fight a pitched battle against the advice of his generals and his allies. The word Panipat means the town of weavers or the textile city. This battle was fought at Panipat because Panipat was like an entry point to India. When the ambassadors and the armies from Afghanistan and Persia, they had to come through the city and the open fields of Panipat. It was a large area of open fields where it was possible for armies to set up camps. Events leading to 3rd Battle of Panipat: In November-December 1761, Ahmed Shah Abdali crossed Indus with a large army and overran the whole of Punjab. Finding resistance impossible, Sabaji and Dattaji Scindhia had to fall back towards Delhi. Dattaji Scindhia was killed in a skirmish with the Afghans at Barai Ghat on 9 January 1760. Malhar Rao Holkar and Jankoji Scindhia also retreated and Abdali occupied Delhi. The Peshwa now decided to send Sadashiva Rau Bhau to Delhi. He recaptured Delhi on 22 August 1760 and marched into Punjab to face Abdali. Both the armies were handicapped for supplies and negotiated for peace. Since no meeting ground was found, the battle came on 14th January 1761. On the day of the battle, the Marathas had the upper hand. But Sadashiv Rao and Vishwas Rao (the son of the Peshwa) were killed. The death of the commander turned the tide of the battle. Mahadji Scindhia became lame while Malhar Rao Holkar ran for his life. The Afghans under Ahmed Shah Abdali won the third battle of Panipat. The news of the defeat reached Peshwa Balaji Bajirao when he was marching to Panipat with reinforcements. He returned to Poona where he died broken hearted in 1761, a few days later. The loss at the battle can be summed in the following words: “Two pearl (first grade commanders) have been dissolved. 27 gold mohars (second grade commanders) have been lost and of the silver (third level commanders) and the copper (common soldiers) the total can’t be reckoned.” Consequences of the Third Battle of Panipat: Dr. Sardesai has written that notwithstanding the terrible loss at the third battle of Panipat, the disaster decided nothing. In fact, it pushed forward in the distant sequel two prominent members of the dominant race: Nana Phadanavis and Mahadji Scindhia had escaped death on that fatal day. Elphinston has written that never was a defeat more complete and never was there a calamity that diffused so much consternation. J.N. Sircar has written that the third battle of Panipat was a nation wide disaster like Flodden Field. There was no home that had not mourn the loss of a member. An entire generation of leaders was cut off at one stroke. The third battle of Panipat decided the fate of India. The Marathas and the Muslims weakened each other in the deadly conflict, facilitating the aims of the British for Indian supremacy. Causes of the Defeat of the Marathas: 1. Ahmed Shah’s army was stronger and more mobile. 2. Sadashiv Bhau was no match for Ahmed Shah Durrani who was the best commander in Asia at those times. 3. The strength of the Marathas lay in guerilla warfare. Thus, the decision to fight pitched battle was a mistake. 4. The Marathas could not maintain their line of communication. Bhau’s army literally lived on the air while the Afghans kept their supply line open through Doab and Delhi. 5. While the Marathas were armed with swords and lance, the Afghan soldiers were armed with muskets. 6. Mutual jealousy of the Maratha commander weakened their side. Bhau and Malhar Rao Holkar did not like each other and wished for downfall. Thus, the commanders were individualistic in spirit and could not make a unified stand. Sidney Owens has written that the third battle of Panipat shattered the Maratha power to atoms and though the hydra-headed monster was not killed, it was so effectually scotched that it remained practically quiescent until the great British statesmen were in a condition to cope with and ultimately to master and disintegrate it. .

He was appointed as Peshwa in 1740 upon the death of his illustrious father, the Peshwa Bajirao I. During his tenure, the Chhatrapati (Maratha king) was reduced to a mere figurehead. At the same time, the Maratha empire started transforming into a confederacy, in which individual chiefs — such as the Holkars, the Scindias and the Bhonsles of Nagpur kingdom — became more powerful. During Balaji Rao's tenure, the Maratha territory reached its zenith. A large part of this expansion, however, was led by the individual chiefs of the Maratha Empire. By the end of Balaji Baji Rao's tenure, the Peshwa was reduced to more of a financier than a general. Unlike his father, Balaji Baji Rao was not a great military leader and failed to gauge the seriousness of Durrani invasions in northern India. This ultimately resulted in a devastating Maratha defeat at the Third Battle of Panipat.[3] Some judicial and revenue reforms were made during his tenure, but the credit for these goes to his cousin Sadashivrao Bhau and his associate Balshastri Gadgil. THIRD BATTLE OF PANIPAT(1761) The Third Battle of Panipat took place on 14 January 1761, at Panipat, about 60 miles (95.5 km) north of Delhi between a northern expeditionary force of the Maratha Empire and a coalition of the King of Afghanistan, Ahmad Shah Durrani with two Indian Muslim allies—the Rohilla Afghans of the Doab, and Shuja-ud-Daula, the Nawab of Oudh.

The battle was fought on a large plain near the site now known as Kala Amb near Panipat city with the Yamuna river to the east and the old Shah nahr about six miles to the west at the village of Khukhrana. The city and fort of Panipat was behind the Maratha army and the Afghans stood on the road towards Delhi. In this manner the two armies blocked each other’s paths to their homeland from the end of October 1760 onwards till the decisive battle on 14 January 1761. About six lakh men including camp followers, and several lakh beasts: horses, bullocks and elephants were in this close area for two and a half months utilising all food and firewood in the entire neighbourhood, until the battle began. The battle between an Afghan king nearly a thousand miles away from his capital at Qandahar and a Maratha army at an equal distance from their base at Pune seems an extraordinary event. The antecedents of the battle were long and the differences appeared unbridgeable.

The Position of Marathas in 1798 A.D. The Marathas had been split up into a loose confederacy. At the head of the Maratha empire was Raja of Sitara. His power had been seized by the Peshwa Baji Rao II was the Peshwa at this time. He became Peshwa at the young age of twenty one in December, 1776 A.D. He had the support of Nana Pharnvis who had secured approval of Bhonsle, Holkar and Sindhia. He was destined to be the last Peshwa. He loved power without possessing necessary courage to retain it. He was enamoured of authority, but was too lazy to exercise it. He enjoyed the company of low and mean companions who praised him to the skies. He was extremely cunning, vindictive and his sense of revenge. His fondness for wine and women knew no limits. Such is the character sketch drawn by his contemporary Elphinstone. Baji Rao I was a weak man and the real power was exercised by Nana Pharnvis, Prime Minister. Though Nana was a very capable ruler and statesman, yet about the close of his life he had lost that ability. Unfortunately, the Peshwa also did not give him full support. Daulat Rao Sindhia was anxious to occupy Nana's position. He lent a force under a French Commander to Poona in December, 1797 A.D. Nana Pharnvis was defeated and imprisoned in the fort of Ahmadnagar.

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.

Introduction During the first half of the seventeenth century, the Mughal empire was at the height of its glory. The Maratha nationalism grew up when the Mughals had nearly completed their conquest of Indian subcontinent. Gradually the Marathas developed a strong spirit of nationalism which made them most powerful group of people in India. The rise of the Marathas was the result of the efforts of entire Maratha people who on the basis of unity of their language, literature, community and home land gave birth to Maratha nationalism and desire to create an independent state of their own. The result was the formation of an independent state of Hindus in South India under the great courageous leader Shivaji. He emerged as the most formidable power in India. It was the strength of Nationalism which inspired Maratha leaders to establish Hind- pad- padshahi in India by capturing the power of Delhi emperors and bringing India under one rule. Aurangzeb had to spend the last twenty five years of his reign in the Deccan desperately fighting against Marathas. This glory of Marathas came to an end when they were defeated in the third battle of Panipat in 1761.

  • Chapter Ii History
    CHAPTER II HISTORY ANCIENT PERIOD The archaeological discoveries prove that the region of Panipat was inhabited by human beings from very earlier times and had been the centre of vigorous cultural and political activity. We know from the hymns of the Rigveda (VII, 18,19; V.52,17) that the Bharatas of the Saraswati Valley held sway up to the Yamuna river and defeated Ajas, Sigrus and Yaksus1. The archaeological heritage of Panipat region can be divided into pre-historic, proto-historic and historical phases. The extent of archaeological sites of Panipat district, numbering 63, can be classified into Pre-Harappan, Harappan, Late Harappan, Painted Grey Ware (PGW), Grey Ware, Early Historical, Early Medieval and Medieval periods2. Alexander Cunningham and Rodgers were the first archaeologists who collected some relics specially coins from a few sites of Panipat. But it was in the year 1952 that B. B. Lal of Archaeological Survey of India discovered Painted Grey Ware and Northern Black Polished Ware from the mounds of Panipat and Sonepat. S. B. Chaudhary also discovered the Painted Grey Ware at Baholi, 13 kilometres to north-west of Panipat3. Subsequent archaeological explorations conducted by a number of archaeologists and recent explorations along the right bank of River Yamuna conducted under the supervision of C. Dorje have resulted to the discovery of Dull Red Ware in Garsh Sanrai in Panipat Tehsil and Red Ware, Red Polished Ware and Dull Red Ware in Jaurasi Khalsa in Samalkha Tehsil of Panipat district. These explorations have brought to light several ancient mounds containing the relics of bygone history4.

    Battles of Panipat drishtiias.com/printpdf/battles-of-panipat First Battle of Panipat (1526) The Battle The First Battle of Panipat (21 April 1526) fought near a small village of Panipat( Haryana), this marked the beginning of Mughal Empire in India. The battle was fought between the invading forces of Zahir-ud-din Babur and the last empire of the Delhi Sultanate, Lodi Empire during the rule of Ibrahim Lodi. The Military Force Babur’s forces numbered around 15,000 men with 20 to 24 pieces of field artillery. The fighting force of Ibrahim Lodi was around 30,000 to 40,000 men in total, along with at least 1000 war elephants. Babur’s army used guns which proved to be decisive in the battlefield but the Sultan lacked any field artillery. Moreover, the sound of the cannons used by Babur’s army frightened Lodi’s elephants, causing them to trample Lodi’s own men. Babur’s Tactics 1/6 The weapons were not all, it was Babur’s tactics of Tulughma and Araba that led him to victory. Tulughma: it meant dividing the whole army into various units, viz. the Left, the Right and the Centre. The Left and Right divisions were further subdivided into Forward and Rear divisions. Through this a small army could be used to surround the enemy from all the sides. Araba: the centre forward division was then provided with carts (araba) which were placed in rows facing the enemy and tied to each other with animal hide ropes. Behind the Araba, cannons were placed which could be fired without any fear of being hit as they were shielded by the bullock carts which were held in place due to the hide ropes holding them together.
