The other Rohilla chiefs sought the aid of the Nawab-Vizier of Oude, undertaking to pay thirty lacs of rupees, on condition of his expelling the Mahrattas. These having quarrelled with the emperor, occupied Delhi, and reduced him to a mere puppet in their hands, and returned again towards Rohilcund. The Rohillas called on the Nawab-Vizier for his aid; he did nothing but demand the promised subsidy. Hastings was pressed for money from home. He had taken meaus, after his own fashion, for saving money. He had reduced the deposed Bengal Nawab's allowance by one-half.

Breaches v of faith by the Company were now so common that Hastings did not take the trouble to conceal from his Council those towards the emperor, who was indeed bribed to submit by the promise of a share in Rohilcund when conquered. But Hastings did not for awhile venture to bring forward that part of the treaty of Benares which related to the lending of English forces as hirelings to subdue what was then the best governed country in India. However, the Nawab-Vizier...

The Indian Mutiny and the British Imagination
Author: Gautam ChakravartyPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9781139442411
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
Gautam Chakravarty explores representations of the event which has become known in the British imagination as the 'Indian Mutiny' of 1857 in British popular fiction and historiography. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources including diaries, autobiographies and state papers, Chakravarty shows how narratives of the rebellion were inflected by the concerns of colonial policy and by the demands of imperial self-image. He goes on to discuss the wider context of British involvement in India from 1765 to the 1940s, and engages with constitutional debates, administrative measures, and the early nineteenth-century Anglo-Indian novel. Chakravarty approaches the mutiny from the perspectives of postcolonial theory as well as from historical and literary perspectives to show the extent to which the insurrection took hold of the popular imagination in both Britain and India. The book has a broad interdisciplinary appeal and will be of interest to scholars of English literature, British imperial history, modern Indian history and cultural studies.
