Answer 1

The Third Battle of Panipat was fought between the Maratha Empire and King of Afghanistan, Ahmad Shah Abdali supported by Indian Muslim allies. The battle took place in Panipat on 14 January 1761. The Mughal Empire had been on a decline since 1707 and rise of Marathas was imminent.

The third battle of panipat was fought on 14 january 1761 . The marathas became weak after thier defeat at the hands of ahmad shah abdali in the third battle of panipat. the various maratha cheifs broke away and started ruling over small areas. this battle also allowed the english to strenghten their position in india and so the marathas failed in this battle.
