The Doctrine of Lapse was introduced by Lord Dalhousie, the British Governor-General of India, in the mid-19th century. This policy allowed the British East India Company to annex any princely state if the ruler died without a male heir, thereby expanding British control over Indian territories. The doctrine played a significant role in the annexation of several states and contributed to growing resentment towards British rule, ultimately leading to the Indian Rebellion of 1857.
