Which of the following is not correct?
Choose the most appropriate option from below:

  • A.Battle of Tunga was between Rajput and Maratha
  • B.Battle of Patan was between Rajput and Maratha
  • C.In battle of Tunga, Maratha had the upper hand
  • D.In battle of Patan, the Maratha army was victorious

Answer: C

The statement that is not correct is In battle of Tunga, Maratha had the upper hand.

The battle of Tunga (1787), near Jaipur, was fought between the Rajput forces of Jaipur and Jodhpur under Sawai Pratap Singh and Vijay Singh and the Maratha army of Mahadji Scindia. The Rajputs had the better of it and Scindia had to withdraw, so the Marathas did not have the upper hand.

The battle of Patan (1790) was again between the Rajputs and the Marathas, and this time Mahadji Scindia's army, led by the French commander de Boigne, won decisively. So statements A, B and D are correct.
