Solution

The correct option is D The English
Many merchants from different European countries, including the Dutch and the English, came to India for trade. In the 1700s, the English began to fight the other colonial powers for dominance over the sub-continent. They finally defeated the Dutch in the Battle of Bedera in 1759 CE. Since then, the Dutch started losing their settlements in India one-by-one.
