Explanation:
Lord Richard Wellesley (1760 – 1842) was the first Governor-General of Bengal. His tenure during the 1798 – 1805, saw various reforms and changes in the administration, mainly aimed at expanding the imperialist rule of the British in India, through annexation of kingdoms.
The Subsidiary Alliance was introduced, whereby the local Kings entered into alliance with the British, in exchange for protection from enemies. In return, they promised not to attack any power without the British permission and their armies came under British Generals.
