Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (D)

The correct options are
A British resident became the de facto ruler of Punjab.
B East India Company acquired the Punjab region.
D Sikhs opposed British rule.

After the Lahore Agreement was signed in 1846, the East India Company subdued the Punjab region, and the British resident there became its de facto ruler. The Sikh did not accept British rule and revolted, which led to the Second Anglo-Sikh War.
