Discover how Prem Singh fought alongside Bhai Maharaj Singh in a courageous revolt against the British after the Anglo-Sikh wars, braving high stakes to free Punjab.

PREM SINGH, commandant in the Sikh forces demobilized after the first AngloSikh war, joined Bhai Maharaj singh (d. 1856) in a bid to raise the standard of revolt against the British.
