Solution
- There was a fight after Emperor Aurangzeb’s death among his sons for the throne of Delhi.
- Prince Azamshah, his son, marched towards Delhi from the south to seize the imperial throne.
- Prince Shahu was in his captivity and he believed that there would be a conflict between Maharani Tarabai and Shahu Maharaj for the gadi of the Maratha Chhatrapati.
- Such a conflict would make the Maratha strength weak.
Hence, Azam Shah released Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj from his custody.
