Solution

The correct option is B Sir M Vishveshwaraiah
Sir M Vishveshwaraiah wanted to modernise Mysuru. He believed that new industries would develop the state. He once famously declared - ‘Industrialise or Perish’. In other words, he said that a state would cease to exist if it did not set up industries. During this period, Mysuru state progressed and took steps towards modernisation.
