Question

Lord Wellesley was a great governor Explain​

Answer 1

Answer:

Lord Wellesley decided that the time was ripe for bringing as many Indian states as possible under British control.

By 1797, the two strongest Indian powers, Mysore and the Marathas, had declined in power.

The Third Anglo-Mysore war had reduced Mysore to a mere shadow of its recent greatness and the Marathas were dissipating their strength in mutual intrigues and wars.

Political conditions in India were propitious for a policy of (British) expansion: aggression was easy as well as profitable.
