Cevap

The correct chronological order is: 1. Enactment of the Permanent Settlement in Bengal (1793), 2. Systematic introduction of the Ryotwari System in Madras by Thomas Munro (1820), 3. Passage of the Charter Act terminating the East India Company's remaining commercial monopoly (1833), and 4. First application of the Doctrine of Lapse to annex Satara (1848).
The events follow a precise chronological sequence corresponding to the expansion of British administrative systems: Permanent Settlement in Bengal (1793) → Ryotwari System in Madras (1820) → Charter Act terminating remaining trade monopoly (1833) → Annexation of Satara under Doctrine of Lapse (1848).
