    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.

    T A B L E O F C O N T E N T S Glimpses of Jhansi's History Jhansi Through The Ages Newalkars of Jhansi What Really Happened in Jhansi in 1857? Attractions in and around Jhansi Jhansi Fort Rani Mahal Ganesh Mandir Mahalakshmi Temple Gangadharrao Chhatri Star Fort Jokhan Bagh St Jude’s Shrine Jhansi Cantonment Cemetery Jhansi Railway Station Orchha I N T R O D U C T I O N Jhansi is one of the most vibrant cities of Uttar Pradesh today. But the city is also steeped in history. The city of Rani Laxmibai - the brave queen who led her forces against the British in 1857 and the region around it, are dotted with monuments that go back more than 1500 years! While thousands of tourists visit Jhansi each year, many miss the layered past of the city. In fact, few who visit the famous Jhansi Fort each year, even know that it is in its historic Ganesh Mandir that Rani Laxmibai got married. Or that there is also a ‘second’ Fort hidden within the Jhansi cantonment, where the revolt of 1857 first began in the city. G L I M P S E S O F J H A N S I ’ S H I S T O R Y JHANSI THROUGH THE AGES Jhansi, the historic town and major tourist draw in Uttar Pradesh, is known today largely because of its famous 19th-century Queen, Rani Laxmibai, and the fearless role she played during the Revolt of 1857. There are also numerous monuments that dot Jhansi, remnants of the Bundelas and Marathas that ruled here from the 17th to the 19th centuries.

  • The Rise and Fall of the Maratha Power
    The Rise and Fall of the Maratha Power Modern Indian History Evolution of Peshwaship ❑ Shahu, grandson of Shivaji, had been a prisoner of Aurangzeb since 1689. ❑ Released in 1707 ❑ Soon, a civil war broke out between Shahu (Satara) & his aunt Tara Bai (Kolhapur), who had carried out an anti-Mughal struggle since 1700 in the name of her son Shivaji II after the death of her husband Raja Ram. Evolution of Peshwaship Continued… ❑ Arising out of the conflict between Shahu & his rival, a new system of Maratha government was evolved under the leadership of Balaji Vishwanath, the Peshwa of King Shahu. (1713) Balaji Vishwanath (1713-1720 C.E.) ❑ Balaji Vishwanath, a Brahmin, started his career as a small revenue official. He played a crucial role in the victory of Sahu over Tarabai in the Battle of Khed in 1707 C.E. ❑ After Sahu’s (1707-48 CE) coronation as Chatrapathi at Satara, Balaji was made his Sena Karte (organizer of forces) ❑ In 1713 C.E., he was raised to the post of Peshwa, this marked the domination of Peshwa supremacy in Maratha politics. ❑ Office of Peshwa become hereditary. From now onward Chatrapati become just a figure-head. ❑ He is rightly called as ‘Second founder of Maratha state’. Balaji Vishwanath (1713-1720 C.E.) Continued…. ❑ He was the 1st Maratha official to reach Delhi & involve in the internal matters of the Mughal rulers. ❑ He secured the release of Sahu’s mother.

  • For Peer Review 19 Examine the Role of Mobility in the Configuration of Difference in the British Empire at the 20 21 Turn of the Nineteenth Century
    Gender & History Mobility, Gender and Empire in Maria Graham’s Journal of a Residence in India (1812) ForJournal: GenderPeer & History Review Manuscript ID G&H-Mar-2016-0028.R2 Manuscript Type: Original Article Keywords: Mobility, India, Space, 'Long' eighteenth century, Imperialism Page 1 of 46 Gender & History 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Mobility, gender and empire in Maria Graham’s Journal of a Residence in India (1812) 11 12 13 ONNI GUST 14 15 16 This article focuses on Maria Graham’s Journal of a Residence in India (1812) in order to 17 18 For Peer Review 19 examine the role of mobility in the configuration of difference in the British Empire at the 20 21 turn of the nineteenth century. It shows how Graham’s reading and representation of bodies 22 23 in India as frenetically active, directionless or completely still, enabled her to configure 24 25 Indians as inherently inferior to Europeans, where bodies moved with purpose, effecting 26 27 28 ‘progress’ and ‘civilization’. Her characterisation of India as a ‘stagnant’ civilization drew 29 30 on, and resonated with, contemporary European accounts of India. Yet unlike her male 31 32 counterparts, Graham elided a gendered discourse of ‘effeminacy’ and ‘emasculation’, 33 34 replacing it, instead, with a discourse of mobility as a key signifier of inferiority. Placing 35 36 37 Graham’s Journal in the context of the consolidation of East India Company power in 38 39 Western and Central India, the article argues that Graham’s use of a discourse of mobility 40 41 formed part of the construction of a ‘grammar of difference’ that provided the cultural 42 43 foundations of imperial rule.

Assistant Professor, Department of History, Government First Grade College ( Autonomous ), Gubbi. Abstract This paper attempts to study how Peshwas who were all ministers who served as the chief executives to the king and later held the highest administrative office and also controlled the Maratha empire . Maratha confederacy, alliance formed in the 18th century after Mughal pressure forced the collapse of Shivaji’s kingdom of Maharashtra in western India. After the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb’s death (1707), Maratha power revived under Shivaji’s grandson Shahu. He confided power to the Brahman Bhat family, who became hereditary peshwas (chief ministers). He also decided to expand northward with armies under the peshwas’ control. In Shahu’s later years the power of the peshwas increased. After his death (1749) they became the effective rulers. The leading Maratha families—Sindhia, Holkar, Bhonsle, and Gaekwar— extended their conquests in northern and central India and became more independent and difficult to control. The effective control of the peshwas ended with the great defeat of Panipat (1761) at the hands of the Afghans and the death of the young peshwa Madhav Rao I in 1772. Thereafter the Maratha state was a confederacy of five chiefs under the nominal leadership of the peshwa at Poona (now Pune) in western India. Though they united on occasion, as against the British (1775–82), more often they quarreled. After he was defeated by the Holkar dynasty in 1802, the peshwa Baji Rao II sought protection from the British, whose intervention destroyed the confederacy by 1818.
