Explanation:
Success in the first Anglo-Mysore war and a stalemate in the second was followed by defeat in the third and the fourth. Following Tipu's death in the fourth war in the siege of Seringapatam (1799), large parts of his kingdom were annexed by the British, which signalled the end of a period of Mysorean hegemony over South India. The British restored the Wodeyars to their throne by way of a subsidiary alliance and the diminished Mysore was transformed into a princely state.

Answer:
peasant revolt broke out in 1830 in Mysore state and it was suppressed by the army from Madras. It was annexed by William Bentinck in 1831 on the pretext of misrule of Maharaja Krishnaraja III and he was pensioned off.
