EXPLANATION:

The Nizam of Hyderabad was the first to accept the Subsidiary Alliance in 1798. Lord Clive also introduced the subsidiary system in Oudh and the Treaty of Allahabad was signed where the British promised the Oudh territory from enemies like Marathas.So option 1 is correctly matched? .
Under this doctrine the British arrogated to themselves the right to veto the succession of an adopted heir, and instead, to annex the territory concerned, although the adopted successor and his heirs were usually allowed to keep their titles and a substantial annual allowance. States annexed under this doctrine include: Satara (annexed 1848) Jaitpur (annexed 1849) Sambalpur (annexed 1850) Baghat (annexed 1850) Udaipur (annexed 1852) Jhansi (annexed 1853) Nagpur (annexed 1854) Karauli (annexed 1855). So option 2 is correctly matched. ?
Oudh (1856) is widely believed to have under the Doctrine of Lapse. However it was annexed by Lord Dalhousie under the pretext of misgovernance. Mostly claiming that the ruler was not ruling properly. So option 3 is correctly matched.
