Maharani Jind Kaur

Synopsis This biography is an authenticated account of the turbulent events enveloping the short life-span of the valiant Maharani Jind Kaur and brings out her image of being the only one Sikh patriot who resisted the might of British imperialists till her health failed her due to the privations she had to suffer.  For the construction of the story of this dauntless lady and mother of Duleep Singh, the author has primarily used contemporary sources. He has profusely quoted from the original documents particularly the letters of the Maharani which bring forth her role as the who stood against the British might till her last breath. It was she who realized that the British did not possess enough European forces in India to stand on their own. Their main strength was the native Sepoy regiments recruited from among the Indians. Therefore, she struck with idea of inciting the sepoys of the British regiments to revolt against their oppressive white masters. In this way, she germinated the idea of mutiny in the minds of Hindustani sepoys.  Maharani Jind Kaur's escape from high security prison of Chunar fort presents a saga of dare devilery by a woman, perhaps equaled only by the Rani of Jhansi.  This biography is an authenticated account of the turbulent events enveloping the short life-span of the valiant Maharani Jind Kaur.
