Answer:

Under Lord Hastings (Governor General from 1813 to 1823) a new policy of “paramountcy” was initiated. Under this, the Company claimed that its authority was paramount or supreme, hence its power was greater than that of Indian states. ... This view continued to guide later British policies as well.
