Hey friend,
Here is your answer:
◼ Awadh was annexed by Lord Dalhousie in 1856.
The reasons for Awadh's annexation:-
➡ The nawabs of Awadh had been loyal allies of the British since the Battle of Buxar. ➡Moreover, since the nawab had many heirs, the doctrine of lapse could not apply to him.
➡ Awadh had immense potential as a market for English manufactured goods, so Dalhousie annexed the kingdom of Awadh on false charges of misgovernance.
Hope it helps u.

Alleged misgovernment
The kingdom of Oudh was the only great Indian state whose ruler Nawab Wajid Ali Shah was dispossessed on the ground of “intolerable misgovernment”. Awadh was annexed in February 1856 via a proclam
