BY SURENDRANATH SEN, M.A., Premchaxd Roychand Student, Lectcrer in MarItha History, Calcutta University, Ordinary Fellow, Indian Women's University, Poona. Formerly Professor of History and English Literature, Robertson College, Jubbulpore. Published by thz UNIVERSITY OF CALCUTTA 1920 PRINTED BY ATCLCHANDKA BHATTACHABYYA, AT THE CALCUTTA UNIVEB8ITY PEE 88, SENATE HOUSE, CALCUTTA " WW**, #rf?fW rT, SIWiMfT, ^R^fa srre ^rtfsre wwf* Ti^vtm PREFACE The present volume is the first of a series intended for those students of Maratha history who do not know Marathi. Original materials, both published and unpublished, have been accumulating for the last sixtv years and their volume often frightens the average student. Sir Asutosh Mookerjee, therefore, suggested that a selection in a handy form should be made where all the useful documents should be in- cluded. I must confess that no historical document has found a place in the present volume, but I felt that the chronicles or bakhars could not be excluded from the present series and I began with Sabhasad bakhar leaving the documents for a subsequent volume. This is by no means the first English rendering of Sabhasad. Jagannath Lakshman Mankar translated Sabhasad more than thirty years ago from a single manuscript. The late Dr. Vincent A. Smith over- estimated the value of Mankar's work mainly because he did not know its exact nature. A glance at the catalogue of Marathi manuscripts in the British Museum might have convinced him that the original Marathi Chronicle from which Mankar translated has not been lost.

Statistical Table Appendix 1 Editorial We are very happy to present you the annual report of Academic year 2009-2010 of Swami Ramanand Teerth Marathwada University. Education is an important instrument to enrich human mind and personality. Higher education develops the life style of common man. Therefore University and affiliated colleges are conducting many student oriented projects. The physical and qualitative development of University is the result of Hon. Vice Chancellor Dr. Sarjerao Nimse’s exceptional and outstanding leadership. We can see the change at every sphere of life which is the result of dynamic progress of science, technology and communication. Globalization has changed the traditional old methods and more opportunities. In these circumstances University updated syllabus and made more constructive and structural changes. Hon. Vice Chancellor personally thinks that overall personal development of student is more important than mare bookish merit. Therefore more fundamental facilities are being provided to the students. We believe that University is making students more perfect for the world-competation. University granted autonomy to the educational schools so that they may necessarily change syllabus whenever they need and may form more transparency in it. In this way we believe that merit of students will increase day by day. Various scholarships are being granted to students on University level. Today we can see many students are working on various research projects. Now we can see that schools of Language, Literature and Cultural Studies, Media Studies, Education Studies, etc are working in separate buildings.

Thorat, Director General, Pravara Rural Education Society at th the London School of Economics and Politics on 26 September 2019. Excerpt from his speech: There have always been the 3 constants ... Death, Taxes and CHANGE! Software: Software will disrupt most traditional industries in the next 5-10 years. Uber is just a software tool, they don't own any cars, and are now the biggest taxi company in the world. Airbnb is now the biggest hotel company in the world, although they don't own any properties. Artificial Intelligence: Computers become exponentially better in understanding the world. This year, a computer beat the best Go player in the world, 10 years earlier than expected. In the US, young lawyers already don't get jobs. Because of IBM Watson, you can get legal advice (so far for more or less basic stuff) within seconds, with 90% accuracy compared with 70% accuracy when done by humans. So if you study law, stop immediately. There will be 90% less lawyers in the future, only specialists will remain. Watson already helps nurses diagnosing cancer, 4 times more accurate than human nurses. Facebook now has a pattern recognition software that can recognize faces better than humans. In 2030, computers will become more intelligent than humans. AutonoMOUs Cars: In 2019 the first self-driving cars will appear for the public. Around 2020, the complete industry will start to be disrupted.

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.
