The Treaty of Lahore
The First Anglo-Sikh War ended with a treaty that took the Jalandhar Doab, imposed a heavy indemnity and cut the Sikh army. Kashmir then passed to Gulab Singh Dogra, and a British force stayed in Lahore.
Hardinge entered Lahore on 20 February 1846. The treaty, imposed on the boy Maharaja Duleep Singh, blamed the war on Sikh aggression. It annexed his lands on the left bank of the Sutlej and the Jalandhar Doab, and capped his forces at 12,000 horse and 20,000 foot. Articles added on 11 March kept a British force at Lahore to the end of the year.
The Encyclopaedia of Sikhism gives the indemnity as one and a half crore rupees in its entry on the treaties, and as a million and a half sterling in its war entry. The Darbar could not pay, and gave up hill country between the Beas and the Indus instead. Gulab Singh Dogra then bought Kashmir for 75 lakh rupees.
The Treaty of Bhairowal that December went further, placing the kingdom under a British Resident until the Maharaja came of age.[EoS][EoS][EoS]
