Matching Maratha Treaties with Their Historical Years

Understanding the key treaties signed between the Marathas and other powers, especially the British, is crucial for studying Indian history. These treaties often marked significant shifts in power dynamics and the political landscape.

The question asks us to match specific treaties with the years they were concluded.

Let's look at each treaty and its historical year:

  • Treaty of Salbai: This treaty was signed in 1782, bringing an end to the First Anglo-Maratha War.
  • Treaty of Bassein: This treaty was signed in 1802 between the British and the Peshwa Baji Rao II. It was a significant event leading up to the Second Anglo-Maratha War.
  • Treaty of Surji Anjangaon: Signed in 1803, this treaty was between the British and the Scindia ruler, Daulat Rao Scindia, following his defeat in the Second Anglo-Maratha War.
  • Treaty of Rajpurghat: This treaty was signed in 1805, concluding the hostilities between the British and the Holkar ruler, Yashwantrao Holkar, during the Second Anglo-Maratha War.

Based on these historical facts, we can create the correct matching:

List - I (Treaties with Marathas) List - II (Years) Matching
1. Treaty of Salbai a. 1782 1 - a
2. Treaty of Bassein b. 1802 2 - b
3. Treaty of Surji Anjangaon c. 1803 3 - c
4. Treaty of Rajpurghat d. 1805 4 - d

The correct pairings are: Treaty of Salbai (1782), Treaty of Bassein (1802), Treaty of Surji Anjangaon (1803), and Treaty of Rajpurghat (1805).
