Now it is famous for prostitutes.
And most of the families are grooming their sisters and daughters and marry them to rich men as 2nd, 2rd or 4th wives.
So they provide them luxury life style.
 
He was honored for his high stature.
Not because he sold his state and soul to the empire of Brits.




My ancestors were Rajputs ruling the city of Sialkot from the Sialkot fort until Mughals took over.
The ones after them went along fine with brits and ofcourse that was their choice and I'm not them.

The way is to stand and die like men. Everything else is self humiliation and filthy.

And no, not "everyone" was loyal to the brits at any or every stage.
Take the examples I gave you before and tell me which one among them was loyal to brits at some point?
Were they not human? Or came down from the Sky directly?
It's a choice of living like a man or cowardly like women. And those people chose to be men, even Rani Laxmi was more manly than most men you refer to.
And yes, its stupidity for those who lack what it takes ;)


Not every one has to agree with my point of view, but if I was there back then, I would have been out there fighting and would have lived and died like a man.
I respect your opinion but the princely estates were there even in era of Mughals with suzerainty relations and when British came they killed and destroyed. So sanity prevailed in few especially in Muslim elites, The Nawab and his family not only helped the mission of Muslims but even took many welfare steps for Muslims of subcontinent under strict watch of British. It is up to you to call him any thing but the natives of Bhawalpur still rephrase stories of Nawab family good deeds for them. It is a bitter fact that few survivors left of that era say that they were more happy in the past rather in present.

I am ready to leave my state's ten-year-old power if better custodians are proved. Prime Minister Muhammad Ali Bogra said that His Highness will not only prove to be a better custodian, but Bahawalpur will always be treated with priority. Nawab Sahib complained about this. Yerrr Read and sign the agreement.
