New History of the Marathas v3.c37.78

v3.c37.78

The ex-Nawab Mir Kasim was another important friend of the Marathas who at this time similarly craved for some maintenance, but it was beyond the Peshwa’s power to satisfy him. In the south neither Haidar Ali of Mysore nor Nizam Ali of Haidarabad was in a mood to worry the Marathas at this time, both keenly watching the situation at Poona to regulate their future policy. Thus Narayanrao had no outside tension to disturb the smooth working of his administration.
