Duleep Singh (1838-1893)

Duleep Singh was maharaja of Lahore, India. The conditions of the Sikh surrender during the Second Anglo-Sikh War in 1849 required Duleep Singh to resign his title as sovereign of the Punjab, the confiscation of state property, and the surrender of the famous Koh-i-noor diamond to Queen Victoria. In return Duleep Singh was granted a pension provided he ‘remain obedient to the British Government.'
