Solution : The Correct Answer is Baji Rao II
When Peshwa Baji Rao II was in power, the British abolished the Peshwaship. After the Third Anglo-Maratha War (1817–18), which saw the defeat of the Maratha power, this abolition was implemented. The British East India Company defeated the final Peshwa, Baji Rao II, at the Battle of Khadki. The Company now controls the majority of India following the war.
