Solution

The correct option is D cede the region north of the Tungabhadra river
Taking advantage of the Maratha's defeat in the Third Battle of Panipat, Hyder Ali attacked the Maratha's territory in Karnataka. The Marathas defeated him in a battle in Moti Talav, near Srirangapattan. Hyder Ali then agreed to cede the region north of the Tungabhadra river to the Marathas.
