Where was Jhansi Ki Rani Laxmibai died?
Detailed Explanation:
Rani Laxmibai, the queen of Jhansi, died fighting the British on 18 June 1858 near Gwalior during the 1857 Revolt. Her memorial (samadhi) is located in the Phool Bagh area of Gwalior.
After the British annexed Jhansi using the Doctrine of Lapse, she led her forces alongside Tantya Tope and other rebels, ultimately falling in battle at Gwalior—not at Kanpur, Jhansi, or Lucknow.
Therefore, Gwalior is where she died, making Option 2 the correct answer.
