Between 1819 and 1926 four Muslim women rulers reigned over Bhopal,
the second largest Muslim state of India. They received staunch
opposition from powerful neighbours and male claimants in India.
The British East India Company, under Queen Victoria, also opposed
female rule in Bhopal until the Begums quoted the Queen as their
model and inspiration. Through the first objective history of
Bhopal, Shaharyar M. Khan discusses the Begums’ policies in their
relations with the British and provides a fascinating account of
British imperial relations within India.
