Answer 1

Answer: (B)

That the right of governing is conferred upon the kings by God

The statement in the passage, "Under the control of the monarch, education began to devise and preach the infallibility of its masters, the monarch or king. The Divine right Theory propounded that the king can do no wrong" clearly shows that the king has got right to rule directly from the God. Therefore option (b) is the correct choice
