Answer 2

Second Mysore War (1780–84)

Tipu achieved the victory at Baillie at the Campaign of Pollilur in September. The Fourth Anglo-Mysore War (1798–99) witnessed the death of Tipu Sultan and this brought Mysore under the control of the British government.

Mysore, under Haider Ali, became a source of danger to the rising British power in India.

Between 1767 and 1799, the Company waged four wars to destroy the power of Mysore.

When the English attacked and occupied the French port of Mahe, the only outlet for Mysore’s trade with Europe, Haider Ali declared war on them.

The Treaty of Mangalore had not resolved the conflict between Tipu and the English. Since both the English and Tipu Sultan were aiming at political supremacy over the Deccan, a renewal of hostilities between the two was inevitable.
