Since the British had their major victory in South Asia at the Battle of Plassey in Bengal the British had slowly been building up their colony which they named "British India". It is very important to understand that British India was not the modern Indian Republic. Too many people assume that both are the same thing. They are not.
British India was a colony. Call it a jail where various South Asian's peoples were imprisoned. No South Asian voluntarily agreed or wanted be part of British India. In fact they fought not to be part of British India. This means they did NOT want British India.
These were the flags of British India under Company Raj.
1757-1858
Coat of Arms
The languages were English and Persian. The capital was Calcutta. The disgusting and embarrassing fact for all South Asian's is this was a private company. British India was created by a British Company no differant in law to British Airways.
It was British East India Company that made British India. In the making of British India lot's of British blood was spilled. South Asian blood was spilled in trying to stop the making of British India.
Anyway my intention is not to study the history of and making of British India by the English. My intention is to juxtapose to events that are significant to Pakistan.
I want Pakistani's to go back to 1840. My dad was born in 1935. At about 30 years per generation gap that mean my grandad was born around 1900, my great grandad about 1870 and my great great grandad about 1840. That means four generations ago. Most of the members here are younger than me so it probably would be five generations on average.
Anyway when my great great grandad was born in the Sikh Punjab Empire. As a young boy living in the Sikh Empire he did not know he was soon going to be made into "British Indian". This is very important because everybody talks about pre 1947 but have you ever thought how you became British?
1840
If you live in Sindh then your geat great grandad would have been born in the Talpur ruled Sindh. If you live in Punjab, Khyber Pak or Kashmir then your great grandad would have lived in the Sikh Empire
Have a look at the map below which shows the area that is now Pakistan in 1840. The area marked red covers today's Khyber Pak, Punjab and Kashmir which was then the Sikh Empire. The area marked green is Talpur Sindh. On the right side is British India.
Have a good look at the Map of 1840 and place your family in there. Had the British not been so greedy we and I know for sure my great great grandad lived in the Sikh Empire would have never become British and came under the British flag. Neither would I be reminded every turn by Indian's that we were all so called Indian's.
So you can thank the bloody British for making us "British Indian". On the question of how did our great great grandparents become British Indian? The British attacked the Sikh Empire and in the Battle of Gujrat in 1849 my great great grandad officially became "British Indian".
The British attacked Talpur Sindh and in the Battle of Miani 1843 Sindh became "british Indian". Thus majority of what is now Pakistan had become British India. You do note though that both the Punjabi and Sindh were attached to British India by killing Sindhi and Punjabi because both did NOT want to become British Indian. The English lost men also who were trying to build British India. In short English blood was spilled making British India and Punjabi, Sindhi blood was spilled to prevent being part of British India.
Battle of Gujrat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia of 1849 Punjab became British
Battle of Miani - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 1843 Sindh became British
So we ended up being forced into this British Raj - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Have a look at the flag it is NOT Indian flag that is because it is British Indian flag - a British colony. Look at the map below of British India.
You will notice it included Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Burma and even parts of Aden in Yeman.
