The correct answer is: C. Treaty of Surji Anjan Village
The Treaty of Surji Anjan was signed on 17 June 1803 between the British East India Company and the Maratha Empire. The treaty was signed after the Third Anglo-Maratha War, which had been fought between 1785 and 1803.
Under the terms of the treaty, the Marathas had to cede a large amount of territory to the British, including the Bahadurgarh Fort. The treaty also required the Marathas to pay a large indemnity to the British.
The Treaty of Surji Anjan was a major victory for the British East India Company. It marked the end of the Maratha Empire as a major power in India.
