The Peishwa induced the Moghul agent,¹ in charge of the Poona district, to make over the superior authority to him, on promising that Rumbhajee Nimbalkur's Jagheer should be respected. He immediately suppressed a body of banditti which infested it; gave his attention to restoring order in the villages; discontinued all farming of revenue; and encouraged cultivation by the usual means of very low and gradually increasing assessments.² - [Previous: v1.c19.79](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.grantduff-1826.v1.c19.79) - [Next: v1.c19.81](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.grantduff-1826.v1.c19.81) - [Up: v1.c19](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.grantduff-1826.v1.c19) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.grantduff-1826.v1.c19.80](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.grantduff-1826.v1.c19.80) · Pramāṇa
