Solution

The correct option is A Pune
When Balaji Bajirao became a Peshwa, he summoned all the contending factions and forced them to accept the conditions he laid down to avert a succession struggle among the royal family after the death of Shahu Maharaj. He decided that the capital of the kingdom would henceforward be Pune, not Satara.
