Answer: (A), (D)

The Sikh Army defeated the British.

The Second Anglo-Sikh War broke out in 1848. Their victory in the Second Anglo-Sikh war and their expansionist policies helped them gain power over Punjab. After the war, the army of the Sikh Empire or the Khalsa Army was disbanded. The British Indian Army absorbed many soldiers of the Khalsa army.
