According to {{Harvnb|Rice|1897a|pp=370}}, the Maharaja's lack of interest in the affairs of state, soon led two ''dalvoys,'' or ministers, Devaraja, the army chief, and his cousin, Nanjaraja, who was both the revenue minister and the privy councillor, to wield all authority in the kingdom. After Krishnaraja Wodeyar I's death in 1736, the ''dalvoys'' would appoint "puppet maharajas," and effectively rule Mysore until the rise of [[Haidar Ali]] in 1760. | According to {{Harvnb|Rice|1897a|pp=370}}, the Maharaja's lack of interest in the affairs of state, soon led two ''dalvoys,'' or ministers, Devaraja, the army chief, and his cousin, Nanjaraja, who was both the revenue minister and the privy councillor, to wield all authority in the kingdom.
