Option 2: 1, 3, and 4 - This option includes Indian Railways, English as the medium of instruction, and the Telegraph as landmarks of Dalhousie`s administration. As we discussed earlier, Indian Railways is not a valid landmark. Although English as the medium of instruction was introduced during Dalhousie`s administration, there is no specific mention of it being a landmark. The Telegraph, on the other hand, was indeed introduced by Dalhousie, making it a valid landmark. Therefore, this option is not entirely correct.
