Question

Under which Peshwa’s rule Marathas attacked Bengal

A Balaji Vishwanath
B Baji Rao I
C Balaji Baji Rao
D Raghuji Bhonsle

Answer & Explanation

Answer: [C]

The correct answer is Balaji Baji Rao. During the period of the later Mughals, the most important challenge to their power came from the Marathas, whose armies overran the whole of India under the Peshwa Balaji Bajirao (1740-1761). Between 1742 and 1751 Bengal was repeatedly invaded and, in 1751, the Bengal Nawab had to cede Orissa to the Marathas.
