East India Company played the pivotal role in colonization of India
alongside its aftermaths. In the name of trade, the Company hijacked the
political setup of India thereby resulting in the occupation of India.
However, the nature of the occupation in Punjab was utterly different from
the rest of India owing to its political and social background. Even the
treaty of Amritsar was a result of the fear and Ranjit Singh was a crucial
and defining variable amidst all this. The present study is an articulation
of this viewpoint on the basis of of the double game played by the East
India Company. Apart from this, the infliction of war on Punjabis after the
demise of Ranj it Singh is also used an evidence to build the
aforementioned thesis. Suggestive evidence to highlight the malignant
behaviour of the Company in the war (i.e. forgery of the history) against
Punjabis is also presented. The whole study, however, aims at building the
conclusion that the above cited negative tactics were employed by the
Company primarily to distort the Politico-Social fabric of Punjab to
extract their personal colonial interests.
