  • A.It had surplus army.
  • B.Company was weak economically.
  • C.Company did not want more Indian force.
  • D.Of religious considerations.

Answer: A

The Company could not absorb the disbanded soldiers of the Indian princes because it had a surplus of armed manpower, option (A). The passage says that the defeat of Mysore and the Marathas created a vast reservoir of surplus armed manpower, but the Company's army could not absorb all of them. It does not say that the Company was weak economically (B), that it did not want more Indian forces (C), or that religious considerations were the cause (D).
