Solution
The correct option is C Policy of intervention
Before the 1857 Sepoy Mutiny, the East India Company had introduced several reformatory laws. For example, the prohibition of Sati and female infanticide, and the recognition of widow remarriage. Liberal Indians welcomed such measures against social evils. However, the majority of the population feared that these reformatory laws endangered their customs and traditions. So the 'Policy of non-intervention' recognised to stop interfering in such matters.
