The correct answer is: A. James Baillie Fraser.
James Baillie Fraser was a British soldier and administrator who served in India. He was appointed as the Political Agent in the Western Himalayas in 1815. In this role, he was responsible for overseeing the relations between the British East India Company and the local rulers in the region.
In 1817, Fraser led a campaign against the Gorkhas in the Chopal, Jubbal and Rawingarh regions. The Gorkhas were a Nepalese people who had invaded the region in the early 19th century. Fraser’s campaign was successful in driving the Gorkhas out of the region.
