Solution

The correct option is D Nanjarajaiah
By the late eighteenth century, Wodeyar’s position became weaker because the kingdom was actually ruled by the Dalawoys. One of the Dalawoys was Nanjarajaiah. His army was very strong, because of his army commander, Hyder Ali. Hyder Ali was very brave and adventurous. He improved the strength of his army and won many battles for the Mysuru Kingdom.
