Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
Captain Camac and his troops arrived in Palamu in 1771. Chiranjit Rai and Jainath Singh were the rulers of the fort during the time. When Camac arrived in Palamu, they both managed to flee to Ramgarh, where the British captured the fort. On the 19th of February 1771, the patna council ordered camac to take position on palamu and declare gopal rai as the ruler in exchange for revenue. The council was pleased with camac's success against palamu and honoured and rewarded him along with the others who had assisted the British army during the expedition.
