Explanation:

Satara, Nagpjr and Jhansi were among some kingdoms annexed by Lord Dalhousie under the Doctrine of lapse during his tenure as Governor General of India from 1848-1856. According to this doctrine of lapse, any kingdom without any legal hier would be deemed as the British territory and would directly be ruled under British East India Company. Satara and Nagpur was annexed in 1849 while Jhansi was taken over by Britishers in 1856. Later it was the tenure of Dalhousie which witnessed the sepoy mutiny of 1857 leading to end of Company rule and paving the way for the British Crown rule.
