Governor General Warren Hastings was impeached by the British Parliament. Warren Hastings was the first Governor of the Presidency of Fort William, the president of the Supreme Council of Bengal, and, therefore, the first de facto Governor-General of Bengal from 1772 to 1785. The impeachment of Warren Hastings was carried out in the British Parliament between 1787 and 1795. Hastings was accused of misconduct which included mismanagement and corruption. Edmund Burke led the impeachment case, which gave birth to a larger debate about the role of the East India Company in India.
