Answer: (A)

The Sikhs never agreed with the issue of Kashmir which was fixed as per the treaty of Lahore. That is why the treaty of Bhairowal was signed in December 1846. Rani Jindan was removed as the regent and Rs. 1.5 lakh was given to her and replaced by a council consisting of 8 Sikh members.
