List of Indian Princely States

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hundreds of princely states in British India existed prior to the independence of India and Pakistan (including the present Bangladesh) in 1947, ruled by semi-independent potentates. Only four of the largest of these states were still directed by the British through Residencies—British advisors actually present in the states' capitals, most states were grouped together into regional agencies or even governed indirectly, such as vassals of states in direct report with the viceroy.

The most important states are ranked among the salute states (see there for the details concerning ranks of precedence).

Some states only acceded to India and/or Pakistan after independence. States later annexed by India were Hyderabad (18 September 1948), Bhopal (1 May 1949), Indore (15 August 1947, same day as Indian independence), Junagadh (7 November 1947 / February 1948), and Sikkim (16 May 1975). Pakistan re-captured the state of Kalat after the brother of the king tried to break-away on 31 March 1948.Siba incorporated in (1 November 1956), Bilaspur annexed (1 November 1966),Jammu and Kashmir,even though a Muslim state,was annexed by India on 27 October 1947.Kashmir is still disputed between India and Pakistan.
