if the sikh monarchy remained, India and punjab would have been seperated and the Sikhs would have their own country.

I agree, now Sikhs are a conquered people and are being ''indianzied'' ever since and as we speak. such a shame

He wasn't the last King of the Sikhs, he was the last Emperor of the Sikhs because there were other Sikh kings like Nabha, Patiala, Jind, Faridkot and Kapurthala. Also the British did not allow him to meet with any of his surviving relatives from Punjab, Kangra, Nabha etc etc. even when his daughters came to India they were prevented from meeting many of their relatives. It was even to the Point when Jung Bahadur of Nepal came to England, again Duleep Singh was prevented from meeting him also.

it's true that at first the maharaja was after wealth and good living but when he came to undertsand the truth about the british monarchy he longed for Punjab On Sukh Sagar radio sky 0150 they told the story once overwhelming and herat qlenching indeed but the Maharaja shouldn't have let go of his Sikhi "Jaan Jaye par Sikhi Sidak Naa Jaye" Waheguru Ji Ka khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
