Maharaja Ranjit Singh (born in November 13, 1780), also known as “The Lion of Punjab”, once ruled the Gobindgarh Fort in Amritsar. He was the first Indian to send Afghans back to their homelands, and became the Maharaja of Punjab. He fought his first war when he was just 10 years old, and went on winning a number of wars afterwards. The fort he ruled in Amritsar is now a cultural hub and a tourist attraction, where a plenty of fun activities and historical hi-tech shows are available for visitors. Also, it was Gobindgarh Fort where the world famous Kohinoor diamond was kept. This is why this historical place is a major attraction in Punjab.

The relationship between the British and Maharaja Ranjit Singh was complex and pragmatic. Initially, Ranjit Singh, who founded the Sikh Empire in the early 19th century, engaged in diplomatic relations with the British, recognizing their growing power in India. He maintained a wary alliance, balancing cooperation with resistance, as he sought to expand his territory while also safeguarding his empire from British encroachment. After Ranjit Singh's death in 1839, the British increasingly exerted influence over Punjab, ultimately leading to its annexation in 1849.
