In Kanpur the revolt was led by Nana Saheb, the adopted
son of Peshwa Baji Rao II. He joined the revolt primarily
because he was deprived of his pension by the British. He
captured Kanpur and proclaimed himself the Peshwa. But
his victory was short-lived as Kanpur was again captured
by the Britishers.
