Which of the following State was not annexed under Lord Dalhousie's Doctrine of Lapse?
Detailed Explanation:
Doctrine of Lapse was introduced by Lord Dalhousie (1848-1856) to annex princely states without a natural male heir.
Nagpur (1854) annexed after Raghuji III died heirless; Satara (1848) was the first major annexation; Sambhalpur (1849) annexed after death of ruler.
Jaipur maintained a legitimate hereditary succession and was never annexed – it remained a princely state under British suzerainty until 1947.
