In which of the following plays does the playwright reckon the historical facts in the 1840s, a confused period after the death of Ranjit Singh when the British first arrived in Punjab?

  • A.Larins Sahib
  • B.9 Jakhoo Hill
  • C.The Dumb Dancer
  • D.The Persecuted

Answer: A

The play is Larins Sahib by Gurucharan Das, which is set in the 1840s after the death of Ranjit Singh, when the British came to Punjab, and centres on Henry Lawrence. 9 Jakhoo Hill is a play by Gurucharan Das too, but about a different subject, and The Dumb Dancer and The Persecuted are plays by others. The play uses the figure of Henry Lawrence, who was the British resident in Lahore after the first Sikh war and was later killed in the 1857 revolt at Lucknow. 9 Jakhoo Hill concerns Kipling in Shimla and is another play by the same author.
