Solution

The correct option is B Burma
The company officials commanded the sepoys to go fight in Burma. The order was seen contrary to the local belief of some of the Sepoys that they would lose their religious and caste identities if they crossed the sea. The sepoys were ready to go by land, but they were still severely punished for insubordination.
