Solution
The correct option is B Hyder Ali was already in battle with the Marathas. Puli Thevar rallied to get support to fight the British. He formed a confederacy which consisted of the Maravar Palayakkarars. He appealed to Hyder Ali and the French for help. But Hyder Ali was already in battle with the Marathas and could not aid Puli Thevar.
