The correct answer is: c) Ettayapuram.
Veerapandiya Kattabomman was a notable figure associated with the state of Ettayapuram. He was a freedom fighter who fought against the British East India Company in the 18th century. He was born in Ettayapuram in 1760 and died in 1799. He was the son of Veerapandiya Cunnan Chetty and Chinnamma. He was married to Chinnamma and had two sons, Veerapandiya Bhupathi and Veerapandiya Muthu.
Kattabomman was a brave and courageous leader. He led his people in a revolt against the British East India Company in 1798. The revolt was unsuccessful and Kattabomman was captured and executed by the British. However, his bravery and sacrifice inspired many people and he is remembered as a hero in Tamil Nadu.
The other options are incorrect because they are not states in Tamil Nadu. Panchalankurichi is a town in Tirunelveli district, Sivagangai is a district in Madurai division, Pudukkottai is a district in Pudukkottai division.
