In 1726, Ranoji Rao Scindia (founder of Gwalior house) along with Malhar Rao Holkar and the Pawars (founder of the house of Dewas Junior and Dewas senior) were authorized by the Peshwa Baji Rao Ballad to collect Chauth and Sardeshmukhi in Malwa. In 1726-30, Malhar Rao led Maratha armies in Malwa region and in 1733 he was granted 9 parganas in the vicinity of Indore by the Peshwa. The township of Indore had already existed as an independent principality established by Nandlal Mandloi of Kampel. Did You Know – Nandlal Mandloi was the chief of zamidars of Kampel (Indore). He was the one who controlled the Indore area in early 18th Century with his people and an army, numbering about 2000. He established and developed Indore as a group of villages, the place was then known as Indrapuri (after the name of Lord Indreshwar Mahadev Temple) renamed as Indrapur. The city subsequently been called as Indur during the Maratha period and later as Indore during the British Era. In 1733-34, Nandlal Mandloi was defeated by Maratha forces and allowed them to camp across the Kahan River. In 1734, Malhar Rao Holkar established a camp later called Malhar Ganj. In 1747, he started the construction of his royal palace, the Rajwada. It was completed in 1766. This seven storied structure exhibits the blend of Maratha styles. By the time of his death in 1766, he ruled much of Malwa and was acknowledged as one of the five virtually independent rulers of Maratha confederacy.

Some in Malwa objected to her assumption of rule but Holkar army supported her leadership. The Peshwa granted her permission in Dec. 1767. Then she started ruling Malwa with his trusted commander Tukoji Rao Holkar, also a grand nephew and adopted son of Malhar Rao Holkar. She moved the capital to Maheshwar and proceeded to rule Malwa in most enlightened manner. She daily met public and was accessible to anyone who needed her. Along with it, she also did lot of construction at Maheshwar. Even outside the Malwa, she built dozens of temples, Ghats and rest houses. In 1770, she re-established Indore from a township to a prosperous and beautiful city. Gradually she got fame and people gave her name Lokmata Rajmata.

Ahilya bai died in 1795, her age is remembered as a golden age in the history of Malwa. Ahilya Bai was succeeded by her commander and nephew Tukoji Rao Holkar. He was grand nephew of Malhar Rao Holkar who was adopted by him. After the demise of Ahilya Bai Holkar, Tokoji Rao was the only suitable person who could preserve the splendor of Holkar Kingdom intact. He became the ruler of Kingdom for a short period and protected the province as a courageous soldier. The credit of all triumphant that Devi Ahilya enjoyed during her regime actually goes to Tukoji Rao Holkar. After the defeat of Holkar rulers in the Third Anglo-Maratha War, an agreement was signed on 6th of Jan 1818 with British and the Indore state became British protectorate. The Holkar dynasty was able to continue to rule Indore as a princely state.

  • In the Name of Krishna: the Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town
    In the Name of Krishna: The Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sugata Ray IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Frederick M. Asher, Advisor April 2012 © Sugata Ray 2012 Acknowledgements They say writing a dissertation is a lonely and arduous task. But, I am fortunate to have found friends, colleagues, and mentors who have inspired me to make this laborious task far from arduous. It was Frederick M. Asher, my advisor, who inspired me to turn to places where art historians do not usually venture. The temple city of Khajuraho is not just the exquisite 11th-century temples at the site. Rather, the 11th-century temples are part of a larger visuality that extends to contemporary civic monuments in the city center, Rick suggested in the first class that I took with him. I learnt to move across time and space. To understand modern Vrindavan, one would have to look at its Mughal past; to understand temple architecture, one would have to look for rebellions in the colonial archive. Catherine B. Asher gave me the gift of the Mughal world – a world that I only barely knew before I met her. Today, I speak of the Islamicate world of colonial Vrindavan. Cathy walked me through Mughal mosques, tombs, and gardens on many cold wintry days in Minneapolis and on a hot summer day in Sasaram, Bihar. The Islamicate Krishna in my dissertation thus came into being.

  • Ahilyabai Holkar Author: Sandhya Taksale Illustrator: Priyankar Gupta a Chance Encounter (1733)
    Ahilyabai Holkar Author: Sandhya Taksale Illustrator: Priyankar Gupta A chance encounter (1733) “Look at these beautiful horses and elephants! Who brought them here?” squealed Ahilya. Reluctantly, she tore her eyes away from the beautiful animals – it would get dark soon! She hurried inside the temple and lit a lamp. Ahilya closed her eyes and bowed in prayer. 2/23 Little did she know that she was being watched by Malharrao. He was the brave and mighty Subedar, a senior Maratha noble, of the Malwa province. On his way to Pune, he had camped in the village of Chaundi in Maharashtra. It was his horses and elephants that Ahilya had admired. “She has something special about her. She would make a good bride for my son, Khanderao,” Malharrao thought. In those days, marriages happened early. 3/23 Off to Indore Ahilya was the daughter of the village head, Mankoji Shinde. She hailed from a shepherd family. In those days, girls were not sent to school. Society considered the role of women as only managing the household and taking care of the family; educating a girl was not given importance. But Ahilya’s father thought differently and taught her to read and write. After Ahilya and Khanderao were married, Ahilya went to Indore, which was in the Malwa province, as the Holkar family’s daughter-in- law. The rest is history. She was destined to become a queen! 4/23 Who was Ahilyabai? Three hundred years ago, Maharani Ahilyabai ruled the Maratha-led Malwa kingdom for 28 years (1767-1795 A.D).

  • Commitment and Conquest: the Case of British Rule in India
    The University of Adelaide School of Economics Research Paper No. 2009-24 Commitment and Conquest: The Case of British Rule in India Mandar P. Oak and Anand Swamy The University of Adelaide, School of Economics Working Paper Series no. 0083 (2009 - 24) Commitment and Conquest: The Case of British Rule in India Mandar P. Oak School of Economics University of Adelaide Adelaide AUSTRALIA Anand Swamy Dept of Economics Williams College Williamstown MA, USA Preliminary draft. Do not quote without premission. July 24, 2009 Abstract Contemporary historians usually attribute the East India Company’s military success in India to its military strength. In contrast, we argue that, on its own, military strength was a mixed blessing: it could have led to the formation of coalitions against the Company. This did not happen because the Company’scommitments to Indian regimes were more credible than their commitments to each other. In this sense, commitment was the key to conquest. 1 1 Introduction There is a huge and sophisticated literature on why the East India Company, a trading enterprise, was able to conquer India. The dominant view among modern historians foregrounds the Company’ssuperior military power, based on better technology and access to capital, and support from the British state.1 An- other group of historians, while acknowledging the Company’smilitary strength, also emphasize the myopia of Indian regimes, arguing that they failed to recog- nize that their disunity would pave the way for the Company’s ascendance, via serial conquest.2 A variant of this view (Stein 2001, p.209) emphasizes the Company’sorganizational structure, arguing that Indian regimes were "lulled" into a false sense of security because they were aware that authorities in London (with oversight over the Company in India) were conservative, and opposed to risky warfare.

  • FALL of MARATHAS, 1798–1818 A.D. the Position of Marathas in 1798 A.D
    M.A. (HISTORY) PART–II PAPER–II : GROUP C, OPTION (i) HISTORY OF INDIA (1772–1818 A.D.) LESSON NO. 2.4 AUTHOR : PROF. HARI RAM GUPTA FALL OF MARATHAS, 1798–1818 A.D. 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.

Holding Institution British Library: India Office Records and Private Papers Copyright for document Public Domain About this record Imprint: The Coronation Durbar, Delhi, 1903 (London: Eyre & Spottiswoode, 1903) Genre/Subject Matter: The volume is a specially published edition, under the imprint of Bourne and Shepherd and printed by Eyre & Spottiswoode, London. The title page and four page introduction are followed by prints lightly tipped onto the album pages, each preceded by a sheet of letterpress caption. The volume provides a comprehensive record of the events and personalities involved in the Durbar, summed up in the introduction as follows: 'The Delhi Durbar Photo Biographic Album is designed as a pictorial rather than a historical record of the Coronation Durbar. The photographs which it is composed of have been chosen from an immense collection of portraits and views far beyond the compass of any single volume. The pictures here given represent the important visitors, Princes, delegates, functions, etc., and constitute the most perfect and complete reproduction in photography of an Imperial celebration which will live in the minds of men as the greatest of its kind in the history of the modern world.' The album presents a particularly fine series of portraits of Indian princes who attended the Durbar.
