Correct Answer: Lord Dalhousie


Solution : The correct option is - Lord Dalhousie

The Doctrine of Lapse was a strategy for annexation developed by Lord Dalhousie, the Governor-General of India, between 1848 and 1856. The notion of annexing those states without inheritors was proposed. They no longer had the authority to rule, and adoption won't reestablish it. The strategy is most frequently associated with Lord Dalhousie, who served as the Governor-General of the East India Company in India from 1848 to 1856.
