Solution

The correct option is C Both 1 and 2
<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> The Marathas were used to Guerilla warfare. Panipat is on flat plains and it was not an appropriate place for guerilla warfare. The political policies of Marathas led them to make enemies of local rulers like Rajputs, which left them with no support in the Battle of Panipat.
