The Treaty of Surji-Anjangaon took place in which year?

1799 AD
1800 AD
1803 AD
1903 AD

The correct answer is: A. 1799 AD

The Treaty of Surji-Anjangaon was signed on 30 December 1799 between the British East India Company and the Maratha Empire. The treaty ended the Third Anglo-Maratha War and resulted in the Maratha Empire ceding control of much of its territory to the British.

The treaty was signed at Surji-Anjangaon, a village in the present-day state of Maharashtra, India. The British were represented by General Gerard Lake, while the Marathas were represented by Nana Fadnavis.

The treaty stipulated that the Marathas cede control of all of their territory north of the Narmada River, as well as the districts of Cuttack and Balasore in Orissa. The Marathas also agreed to pay a large indemnity to the British.

The Treaty of Surji-Anjangaon marked the end of the Maratha Empire as a major power in India. The British now controlled most of the Indian subcontinent, and the Marathas were reduced to a minor kingdom.

The other options are incorrect because they are not the years in which the Treaty of Surji-Anjangaon took place.
