The correct option is B British
During the War of 1857 CE, Prime Minister of Hyderabad Nizam Salar Jung invited Venkattappa Nayaka and handed him over to the British. He was taken to a fort in Chengalpet near Madras. Surapura Palepattu was thus gifted to the Nizam of Hyderabad by the Bitish and the successors of Surapura lived under the administration of Nizam of Hyderabad.
