Who ruled Mysore under a subsidiary alliance with the British after the defeat of Tipu Sultan at the Battle of Seringapatam?

Wodeyars

The correct answer is Option 4- Wodeyars

The Wodeyars ruled Mysore under a subsidiary alliance with the British after the defeat of Tipu Sultan at the Battle of Seringapatam in 1799.

A subsidiary alliance was a type of treaty that was imposed by the British on Indian rulers. Under the terms of a subsidiary alliance, the Indian ruler had to give up control of their foreign relations and military to the British. They also had to pay a subsidy to the British for maintaining a British garrison in their state.

The Wodeyar dynasty had ruled Mysore for over 500 years before the Battle of Seringapatam. After the battle, the British restored the Wodeyars to power, but under a subsidiary alliance. The Wodeyars continued to rule Mysore until India gained independence in 1947.
