Nabha State
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nabha State was one of the Phulkian states of Punjab. The state was established in 1763 after the capture of Sirhind by the Sikh Confederacy. With the capture of Sirhind, most of the old imperial province was divided amongst the Phulkian chiefs. The area around Amloh was taken by the chief of the Nabha - Hamir Singh. In 1809 with the power of Ranjit Singh expanding, Nabha State fell under the protection of this British government. During the Indian rebellion of 1857 the state was loyal to the British and was granted territory as a reward.[1]
