Nana Sahib
Nana Sahib (born 19 May 1824 – disappeared 1857), born as Dhondu Pant, was an Indian, Maratha aristocrat, who led the Cawnpore rebellion during the Indian Rebellion of 1857. As the adopted son of the exiled Maratha Peshwa Baji Rao II, he was entitled to a pension from the English East India Company. The Company's refusal to continue the pension after his father's death, as well as what he perceived as high-handed policies, compelled him to revolt and seek freedom from company rule in India. He forced the British garrison in Cawnpore to surrender, and gained control of Cawnpore for a few days. He later disappeared, after his forces were defeated by a British force that recaptured Cawnpore.
==Early life==
Nana Sahib was born on 19 May 1824 as Nana Govind Dhondu Pant, to Narayan Bhatt and Ganga Bai.〔Wolpert, Stanley. ''A New History of India'' (3rd ed., 1989), pp. 226–28. Oxford University Press.〕
After the Maratha Confederation defeat in the Third Maratha War, the East India Company had exiled Peshwa Baji Rao II to Bithoor near Cawnpore (now Kanpur), where he maintained a large establishment paid for in part out of a British pension. Nana Sahib's father, a well-educated Deccani Brahmin, had travelled with his family from the Western Ghats to become a court official of the former Peshwa at Bithoor. Lacking sons, Baji Rao adopted Nana Sahib and his younger brother in 1827. The mother of both children was a sister of one of the Peshwa's wives.〔, Saul David. ''The Indian Mutiny'' (published 2003), pp.45–46. Penguin Books, ISBN 0-141-00554-8.〕 Nana Sahib's childhood close associates included Tantya Tope, Azimullah Khan and Manikarnika Tambe who later became famous as Rani Lakshmibai. Tantya Tope was the son of Pandurang Rao Tope, an important noble at the court of the Peshwa Baji Rao II. After Baji Rao II was exiled to Bithoor, Pandurang Rao and his family also shifted there. Tantya Tope was the fencing master to Nana Sahib. Azimullah Khan joined the court of Nana Sahib as Secretary, after the death of Baji Rao II in 1851. He later became the dewan in Nana Sahib's court.
