btw here is your answer:-
The Marathas had lost almost all their top-ranking leaders by the time Wellesley came to India as Governor-General. Mahadji Scindia, Ahalyabai, Nana Fadnavis had been dead.
This removal of the leading personalities led to a selfish struggle among the Marathas. Peshwa Baji Rao II, Daulat Rao Scindia, Yaswant Rao Holkar, etc. entered into a mutual struggle.
Baji Rao, supported by Daulat Rao, nought to ward off Yaswant Rao’s invasion of Poona, but was sig- rally defeated. Baji Rao fled to the English camp and signed a subsidiary alliance with them. This alliance is known as the treaty of Bassein (1802).
According to the provisions of this treaty a subsidiary force of not less than 6,000 regular infantry, with the usual proportion of field-artillery and European artillery men was to be static tied within Peshwa’s territory in perpetuity and for its maintenance territories yielding annual revenue of twenty-six lacs were handed over to the English by the Peshwa. The Peshwa also pledged not to enter into any communication or entertain any European power hostile to the English. In this way the Peshwa sold his independence for his protection.
The Second Anglo-Maratha War (1803–1805) was the second conflict between the British East India Company and the Maratha Empire in India.
The war started when deposed Peshwa Baji Rao II, entered Poona with the British Forces in May 1803.British attacked from North under General Lake and from South under Arthur Wellesley, brother of the Governor General. The fighting started from Gujart, Bundelkhand, Orissa engaging all Maratha chiefs in their homes but not let them “reunite“. The war prolonged two years and several treaties were signed by the Maratha rulers with the Peshwa and the British. In the end, the Maratha power was destroyed and British supremacy established.
Results of war
All the Maratha forces were defeated by the British in these battles.
