Solution

The correct option is A Marathas and English
The treaty of Purandhar was a pact between the peshwa (chief minister) of the Marāthā people and the supreme government of the British East India Company in Calcutta. As per this treaty, Raghunathrao was only given a pension and was not promised any support for his claim to the Peshwa seat. Besides this, the English retained Salsette and Baruch.
