Solution

The correct option is D Chengalpet
Venkatappa Nayaka was initially given a death sentence but on the appeal of a British Officer, Medose Taylor, the sentence was reduced to 4 years of deportation. He was taken to a fort in Chengalpet near Madras. It is believed that he was shot to death by the British. However, the British claimed that he committed suicide.
