Jind Kaur

Maharani Jind Kaur, also known as Rani Jindan Kaur, was regent and, shortly the regnant of the Sikh Empire from 1843 until 29 March 1847. After the Sikh Empire was dissolved on 29 March 1847, the Sikhs claimed her as the Maharani and successor of Maharaja Duleep Singh. However, on the same day the British took full control and refused to accept the claims.
