Answer:
Devised by :- Lord Dalhousie...
After taking as Governor - General in 1848, Lord Dalhousie began the final stage of annexations. He devised a policy called Doctrine of Lapse. According to it, when the ruler of a Kingdom under the British protection (subsidiary state) died without a natural heir, his territory would not automatically pass to an adopted heir, but would 'lapse', that is, become part of the British dominion, unless the adoption had been earlier approved by the British. Dalhousie annexed Satara, Nagpur, Jhansi and many other kingdoms under the Doctrine of Lapse.
