Mohini Agrawal 5 years ago

In this system , Britishers gave security to the rulers for money but if the rulers don't pay them they will keep their lands
the subsidiary alliance was introduced by lord wellesly. it was used to bring small principalities under the control of British empire. the main features of subsidiary alliance were; * any indian ruler accepting the subsidiary alliance had to keep British forces within his/her territory and had to pay for the up keep of the troops * if the ruler could not make payments then he/she had to cede territory to the british * a British official called 'Resident' would stay at the court of the ruler * rulers gave control of their foreign affairs of the EEIC. in return they were given protection by the company * all non-english foreigners were expeled from the state of the ruler
