NANA SAHIB

This article appears in Volume V19, Page 160 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MOS-NAN
NANA SAHIB , the common designation of Dandu Panth, an adopted son of the ex-
peshwa
  of the Mahrattas, Baji Rao, who took a leading
part
  in the
great
  Indian Mutiny, and was proclaimed
peshwa
  by the mutineers. Nana Sahib had a grievance against the British government because they refused to continue to him the pension of eight lakhs of rupees (8o,000) which was promised to Baji Rao by Sir John
Malcolm
  on his surrender in 1818. This pension, however, was only intended to be a
life
  grant to Baji Rao himself. For this refusal the Nana bore the British a lifelong grudge, which he washed out in the blood of
women
  and children in the massacres at
Cawnpore
 . In 1859, when the remnants of the rebels disappeared into Nepal, the Nana was among the fugitives. His death was reported some time afterwards, but his real
fate
  remains obscure.
