Solution

The correct option is B Maharaja Ripudaman Singh
Ripudaman Singh, the Maharaja of Nabha province, is known for his support rendered towards Rakab Ganj Gurudwara Morcha. He refused to send his troops to fight the First World War. Thus, the British wanted to get back at Ripudaman Singh. When there was a quarrel between Ripudaman Singh and Bhupinder Singh, the Maharaja of Patiala, the British supported the Maharaja of Patiala and slapped many cases on Ripudaman. Eventually, Ripudaman was dethroned.
