Solution

The correct option is B Allahabad
Lord William Bentinck passed a regulation in 1829 to abolish combined hearing ofcivil court and criminal court. So, the four circuit courts established earlier at Dhaka, Calcutta, Patna and Murshidabad were abolished and he established Separate Sadar Diwani and Sadar Nizamat Adalat at Allahabad for upper provinces.
