This battle led to the rise of British dominance in India.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Correct Answer:
(B) 2 only
The Third Battle of Panipat significantly affected the Maratha Empire and influenced the course of 18th-century Indian history.
It diminished the Marathas’ military power and reduced their control over territories.
This marked a key moment that led to the rise of British dominance in India.
As a result of this defeat, the Marathas declined, creating opportunities for regional powers such as the Sikhs, Rajputs, and Jats to rise. This shift contributed to a greater political diversity in 18th-century India.
In 1771, Mahadji Shinde led a Maratha army into northern India to restore Maratha supremacy and punish those who sided with Afghans or resisted Maratha control.
