Battle of Koregaon

Battle context

The Battle of Koregaon was fought on 1 January 1818 between the British East India Company and the Peshwa faction of the Maratha Confederacy at Koregaon Bhima, occurring during the Third Anglo-Maratha War of 1817–1818. The engagement involved a Maratha Confederacy force that included commanders Baji Rao II and Bapu Gokhale. Beyond its place within the broader British campaign to suppress the Peshwa faction and consolidate East India Company authority over the subcontinent, the recorded facts do not allow further characterization of the battle's operational outcome or its specific effect on the war's trajectory.
