In this episode, we explore the remarkable life of Maharani Jind Kaur, the last Maharani of the Sikh Empire and one of history's most formidable resistance leaders against British colonial expansion. From her humble beginnings to becoming the youngest wife of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, and then regent to her young son Maharaja Duleep Singh, Jind Kaur's journey is one of extraordinary courage and defiance. Branded as "the Messalina of the Punjab" by the British who feared her influence, she led fierce opposition to the annexation of the Sikh kingdom, enduring imprisonment, exile, and separation from her beloved son. Her story reveals a woman whose political acumen and unwavering spirit made her a dangerous adversary to colonial ambitions. Through her life, we witness not just the fall of the Sikh Empire, but the indomitable will of a mother and queen who refused to surrender her heritage without a fight.
