Mentor’s Comments-

In the introduction, mention about 3 Anglo-Maratha wars and the final establishment of British supremacy.
In the body part – First briefly mention the rise of Maratha Empire, then mention the causes of rivalry and how the rivalry shaped contemporary politics. Finally, mention the long term implications.
Conclude suitably.

  Pradipti,
  Very nice and holistic answer. Structure is particularly good.
  You have attempted all the parts of the question fairly.
  Conclusion is very nice.
  In the body part try to mention particular contribution of Peshwas. Mention specifically the rift in various clan of Marathas like holkar gaikwad etc. These will make answer more specific.
  You have good command over the topic.
  Keep writing.
