In today’s UPSC Modern History session (covering Questions 51 to 100), we explore the Subsidiary Alliance system introduced by Lord Wellesley, its role in triggering the Second Anglo-Maratha War, and how British intervention expanded after the Treaty of Allahabad (1765).
We also discuss the ideological divide between Orientalists and Anglicists, the forced alliances with Hyderabad and Mysore, and Tipu Sultan’s resistance through strong economic and foreign policies.

This lecture covers the major treaties:

Treaty of Madras (1769) – First Anglo-Mysore War

Treaty of Mangalore – Second Anglo-Mysore War

Treaty of Seringapatnam – Third Anglo-Mysore War

You will also learn how Tipu Sultan’s trade reforms, monopolies, and alliances with foreign powers became a major challenge to the British East India Company and how British imperialistic policies weakened Indian princely states.

This class is essential for anyone preparing for UPSC CSE, State PCS, or interested in understanding the deeper politics behind the Maratha Wars, Mysore Wars, and the rise of the British Empire in India.
