Explanation:

The war between the British and Rani Lakshmibai:

=> She had a son Damodar Rao, who died within four months of his birth. Following the death of the infant, her husband adopted a cousin’s child Anand Rao, who was renamed Damodar Rao a day prior to the death of the Maharaja.

=> Lord Dalhousie refused to acknowledge the child and applied the Doctrine of Lapse, and annexed the state. However, the Rani refused to accept Lord Dalhousie’s decision.

=> This led to a fight between the two. The Rani of Jhansi gave a tough fight to the British during the two weeks siege of the city.

=> She fought bravely against the British and gave a tough fight to Sir Hugh Rose so as to save her empire from annexation.

=> She died fighting on the battlefield on June 17, 1858.
