    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    The first teak plantations were raised in Nilambur in 1842 by the British. H V Conolly, the Malabar District Collector during the British rule, was instrumental in planting teak in the entire Nilambur area, with the help of Chathu Menon, a forest officer. Now the plantation is named after Conolly.
