Solution

The correct option is A Thondaiman of Pudukottai
Marudhu Pandiar prepared himself to face any attack from the British. The British sent their force under Col. Agnew against him. Realising the seriousness of the issue, Marudhu Pandiar invited people of all religions and castes to join in the struggles against the British. The rebels were defeated at various places. Marudhu Pandiar hid in the Singampunari forest. However, he was captured by Thondaiman of Padukottai and handed over to the British. Marudhu Pandiar and others were hanged to death on Oct 24, 1801. The Tondaiman family were Tamil rulers of the ancient Tondai Nadu. After the death of Raghunatha Kilavan Setupati, Tondaiman became the ruler of Pudukottai.
