BDalhousie
CWarren Hastings
DLord Clive
Answer:
C. Warren Hastings
Read Explanation:
The policy of ‘Security Cell” is related to Warren Hastings and Wellesley.
Warren Hastings fought with Mysore and Marathas to achieve status equivalent to other Indian states.
During this time the company tried to form buffer state (also known as Ring Fence) with an aim to protect its state from Afghans and Marathas.
Thus, they agreed to protect Awadh on the condition that the Nawab of Oudh will bear the expenses.
The main aim of Wellesley was to enforce Indian states to rely on his army power.
