Identify the INCORRECTLY matched pair(s) of the British Governor-Generals of India and the events with which they are associated. i) Lord Dalhousie – Revolt of 1857 ii) Lord Auckland – First Afghan War iii) Lord Canning – Wood's Despatch 1854
Only (i) and (iii)
The correct matching of the British Governor-Generals and their associated events are:
- Lord Dalhousie was associated with the "Doctrine of Lapse" and not with the Revolt of 1857. Thus, this is the incorrect match.
- Lord Auckland was associated with the "First Afghan War" (correct match).
- Lord Canning was associated with the "Wood's Despatch of 1854" (correct match).
Hence, the incorrect matching is Option 3: Only (i) and (iii), as Lord Dalhousie is incorrectly associated with the Revolt of 1857.
