Raghuji III Bhonsle
Raghuji III Bhonsle was the last Maratha raja of Nagpur, placed on the throne as a boy in 1818 after the deposition of Appa Sahib and kept under close British supervision during his minority. When he died in 1853 without a son or adopted heir, Governor-General Lord Dalhousie annexed the kingdom under the doctrine of lapse, and it became the British Nagpur Province.
