Explanation:

In 1816, the Treaty of Sagauli was concluded. The Gurkhas gave up their claim over the Tarai region and ceded the areas of Kumaon and Garhwal to the British.

The British now secured the area around Simla and their north-western borders touched the Himalayas.
The Gurkhas had to withdraw from Sikkim and they also agreed to keep a British Resident at Katmandu.
It was also agreed that the kingdom of Nepal would not employ any other foreigner in its services other than the English.
The British had also obtained the sites of hill stations like Simla, Mussoori, Nainital, Ranikhet and developed them as tourist and health resorts.
After this victory in the Gurkha War Hastings was honoured with English peerage and he became Marquis of Hastings.
