Question

what is subsidiary Alliance?​

Answer 1

The Subsidiary Alliance System was “Non-Intervention Policy” used by Lord Wellesley who was the Governor-General (1798-1805) to establish British Empire in India. According to this system, every ruler in India had to accept to pay a subsidy to the British for the maintenance of British army.

OR

Nizam of Hyderabad was the first to sign the Alliance. In return, the English promised to protect his state from invasion. If the Indian ruler failed to make payments then a part of his territory was taken away.

For Example :- The Nawab of Awadh had to give half of his territories to the company in 1801 because he failed to make payments for the subsidiary force. Even, Hyderabad had to give territories for the same reason.
