Answer 1

Hint: A princely state, also known as an aboriginal state, a feudal state or an Indian state (for those countries on the subcontinent), is a place allied with the ruler of British India or a vassal state under an indigenous or regional ruler. Beginning in 1824, Manipur State has formed a sub-alliance with British India, so it is considered the princely state.

Complete answer:
Maharaja Bodhchandra Singh or Bodhachandra Singh is the last ruler of the Manipur Kingdom. He ruled from 1941 to October 15, 1949. He married seven or nine women. His first wife was Ms. Srimati Maharani Tharendra Kishori who died in 1942. She was the daughter of Prince Bodo Khimedi.

During World War, Manipur was the site of fighting between Japanese and Allied forces. Japan was defeated before the Allies entered Imphal. This was the turning point of the war. After the war, the Manipur Constitution of 1947 established a democratic form of government with the Maharaja as the elected executive and legislative director. In 1949 Maharaja Budhachandra was summoned to Shillong, the capital of India's Meghalaya province, where he signed an accession treaty incorporating the kingdom with India. The legislative assembly was then dissolved and Manipur became part of the Republic of India in October 1949. In 1956 it became a united territory and in 1972 it became a full state. Mairembam Koireng Singh was the first Prime Minister of Manipur State in 1972.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).
