British rule (himachal)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The British territories in the hill came under the direct control of British Crown after Queen Victoria's proclamation of 1858. The provinces of Chamba, Mandi and Bilaspur were at a good rate of progress in various fields during the British rule. During the first world war, nearly all rulers of the hill states remained loyal and served to the British army during the war time. Amongst the states which helped British were the states of Kangra, Siba, Nurpur, Chamba, Suket, Mandi and Bilaspur. [1]
