Years: 1744 - 1744
The Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb had been succeeded on his death in 1707 by Bahadur Shah I, but there had been a general decline in central control over the empire during the tenure of Jahandar Shah and later Mughals.
Several erstwhile Mughal colonies have revolted.
The Carnatic, despite being under the legal purview of the Nizam of Hyderabad, had been ruled since 1732 ruled by Nawab Dost Ali, whose death in 1740 had sparked a power struggle between his son-in-law Chanda Sahib and the Nizam's nominee, Anwaruddin Muhammed Khan.
