Answer 1

Awadh and Satara were captured under doctrine of lapse.

Explanation:

Under the doctrine of lapse, the company took over the princely states of Satara (1848), Jaitpur and Sambalpur (1849), Bhagat (1850), Udaipur (Chhattisgarh) (1852), Jhansi (1853), Nagpur (1854), Tore and Arcot (1855). It is widely assumed that Oudh (1856) was annexed under the Doctrine of Lapse.
