According to the Doctrine, any princely state or territory under the direct influence (paramountcy) of the British East India Company (the dominant imperial power in the subcontinent), as a vassal state under the British Subsidiary System, would automatically be annexed if the ruler was either "manifestly incompetent or died without a direct heir"
The company took over the princely states of Satara (1848), Jaitpur and Sambalpur (1849), Nagpur and Jhansi (1854) and Awadh (Oudh) (1856) using the Doctrine.

Where the legacy or devise is anything other than residue, that property will normally fall into residue.

 The Indian Rebellion of 1857 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Under the Doctrine of lapse policy of Lord Dalhousie many kingdoms like Jhansi,Awadh or Oudh,Satara,Nagpur and Sambalpur were annexed turning the heirs of these kingdoms into 'pensioners' overnight.
The British policy of expansionism (the Doctrine of Lapse) was also greatly resented by the rulers who were displaced, and outraged many if not most of their subjects, particularly in Oudh.
Dalhousie used this doctrine to possess a number of Indian kingdoms, most notably those of Pune, Nagpur and Jhansi, causing the disenfranchised yet still popular rulers of these kingdoms to join sides with the rebellious Indian troops.

His prediction came true for on June 30 the `Mutiny' spread to moonlit Awadh also and disturbed Sir Hendry Lawrence at his dinner.

While her normative guidelines may have been quite simple namely, nationalism, while researching the Sepoy Mutiny (1857-58), the narrative pays tribute to the local colour that the Rani has acquired through songs, ballads, plays, anecdotes and even descendants of the people of the times.
The theory of bad governance by the British is supported by the cast of historians assembled here, who echo the then "erudite British" of England, raising doubts about the viability of executing the Doctrine of Lapse in small states without male heirs, and weakening their a dminsistrative fibre as a general rule.
To boot, they had little respect for religious sentiments- especially Hindus and Muslims- a sure cause of the revolt itself.

 Finance & Development September 1998 - Letters
Blinder does not follow up his tantalizing reference to "many monetary authorities who have failed to acquit themselves with distinction."
Yet another intriguing conundrum is why the IMF, after forcefully arguing as early as 1968 "in favor of a high degree of central bank independence" (Frank Southard, Jr., Deputy Managing Director, Finance and Development, June 1968), allowed this now fashionable doctrine to lapse into institutional oblivion.
It does not figure as an element of conditionality in the IMF's adjustment programs, whose success seems unrelated to the degree of central bank independence.
