(A) 1801 — (III) Subsidiary Alliance introduced in Awadh: Lord Wellesley forced the Nawab of Awadh, Saadat Ali Khan, to sign the Subsidiary Alliance in 1801. Under this treaty, the Nawab had to disband his own army and allow a British contingent to be stationed in his territory, effectively losing his independence.
