________________________

✮Any two policies initiated by the Britishers to annex the Indian kingdoms were:

✵ Doctrine of Lapse

➨ The policy of Doctrine of Lapse was introduced by Lord Dalhousie.

➨ According to this policy, if the ruler did not have his own heir of his own blood, then his kingdom would lapse, that is, it would become a part of the company's territory.

✵ Subsidiary Alliance

➨ The policy of subsidiary alliance for annexation was introduced by the Governor General, Lord Wellesley.

➨ In this policy, the ruler had to keep the British forces within their kingdoms at their own cost. If the ruler failed to make payments for the British army stationed in their kingdom, then he had to give a part of his kingdom's territory to the British as penalty.

Answer:

Policies initiated by Britishers to annex Indian kingdoms are explained below.

Explanation:

1) Doctrine of Lapse:

While serving as the Governor-General of India from 1848 to 1856, Lord Dalhousie mostly adhered to the Doctrine of Lapse, an annexation strategy.

Specifications of the Doctrine of Lapse:

  1. According to this, the East India Company had the right to annexe any princely state that was directly or indirectly (as a vassal) under its control and whose king lacked a legitimate male successor.
  2. Although he documented it and extensively exploited it to win territory for the British, Lord Dalhousie did not invent this.
  3. According to this, no son of the Indian monarch who had been adopted could be declared the heir to the throne. Only the personal possessions and estates of the adopted son's foster father would pass to him.

2) Favouritism :

Zamindars, who were typically hereditary, controlled vast swaths of land and their peasants, from whom they reserved the right to levy taxes for the benefit of imperial courts or for military purposes. The British favoured landowners and suppressed peasants because they were fully aware that in order to exploit the resources of India, they needed to please some and repress others.
