Maharaja Ripudaman Singh of Nabha (1883-1942) was an exceptional
ruler, a princely 'rebel' who resisted the paramount power in
different ways. Forced to abdicate in 1923 ostensibly on account of
'maladministration', Ripudaman Singh was sent to Kodaikanal in
1928, where he died after 14 years in captivity without any
recourse to judicial appeal. Set against the backdrop of Indian
nationalism, Sikh resurgence, and British paramountcy, J.S. Grewal
and Indu Banga trace the Maharaja's political career, revealing the
devious ways in which the paramount power dealt with traditional
nobility. They explore his career, education, and upbringing to
explain his ideological stance, appreciation for Indian
nationalism, and his active involvement in the Sikh reformist
movement. Moved by Panthic and nationalist concerns, the Maharaja
of Nabha bridged 'Indian India' and British India through the
concerns he affirmed, reforms he introduced, and the causes he
espoused as a patriot.
