Solution
The correct option is D Neither 1 nor 2
Explanation:
Statement 1 is incorrect: The princely state of Kitturu(present-day Karnataka) was taken over by the Company in 1824 by imposing the 'doctrine of lapse', even before it was officially articulated by Lord Dalhousie.
Statement 2 is incorrect: Rani Chennamma (queen of Kitturu) led the Kitturu Rebellion (1824) against the Company. She led a war against British forces when not many rulers were familiar with the evil designs of the British.
