Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
The argument that Awadh kings restored the rule of law is supported by following:
1)      The logical conclusion of the First India Company's strategy since 1764 was the enlargement of Awadh in 1856.
2)      Between 1765 and 1801, the company made a variety of agreements with the local state with the sole purpose of retaining control over her and keeping her as a cushion state.
3)      Despite the fact that Wajid Ali Shah was a capable leader, accusations of his ineptitude were exaggerated by the company's administrators.
4)      As a result, the East India Company had a "cause for war" to conquer Awadh. Lord Dalhousie issued an order on February 7th, 1856, to remove Wajid Ali Shah due to his incompetence.
