Answer» The Siege of Seringapatam (5 April – 4 May 1799) was the final confrontation of the Fourth Anglo-Mysore WAR between the British East India Company and the Kingdom of Mysore. The British, with the allied Nizam of Hyderabad, achieved a decisive victory after breaching the walls of the fortress at Seringapatam and storming the citadel. Tipu Sultan, Mysore's ruler, was KILLED in the ACTION.[1] The British restored the Wodeyar dynasty to the throne after the victory, but retained indirect control of the kingdom. |
