The correct answer is option 4 - Ruin of Indian feudalism.

British colonial rule in India had several negative effects on the country`s economy, agriculture, and trade. However, it did not directly result in the ruin of Indian feudalism.

Option 1 - Ruin of Indian agriculture: British policies such as the imposition of high land taxes and the introduction of cash crops led to the decline of traditional Indian agriculture. Many farmers were forced to sell their land or become laborers on the land they once owned. This had a detrimental effect on Indian agriculture.

Option 2 - Ruin of Indian industries: The British implemented policies that undermined Indian industries, such as heavy taxation on Indian-made goods and the promotion of British-made goods. This resulted in the collapse of many Indian industries and the loss of jobs for Indian artisans and workers.

Option 3 - Ruin of Indian trade: British colonial rule disrupted traditional Indian trade networks and replaced them with a system that favored British trade interests. This led to a decline in Indian trade and undermined the economic prosperity of the country.
