Explanation:
Huge loss of territory after the Third Anglo-Mysore war. The Third Anglo-Mysore war ended with the Treaty of Seringapatam one half of the Mysore territory handed over to the British along with Tippu’s 2 sons as hostages. Which had reduced the revenue of the Kingdom, so it failed to re build a stonger army.
