The correct option is B <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Treaty of Srirangapatnam

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> The Third Anglo-Mysore War ended when the British captured the Srirangapatnam Fort, Tippu's capital. Forced to admit defeat, Tippu Sultan had to sign the Treaty of Srirangapatnam. As a result, he lost half of his kingdom, had to pay three crore rupees as war damages, give two of his children as guarantees against the payment, and release the prisoners of war.
