B Correct answer
Explanation

Tantia Tope was a prominent leader in the 1857 rebellion who was captured, tried, and hanged by the British in 1859. Lakshmi Bai died in battle earlier. Aurangzeb was a Mughal emperor from a much earlier period, and 'Nana Patekar' appears to be a confusion with Nana Saheb (a rebel leader) or the modern actor. Tantia Tope's execution was a significant event following the mutiny.
