Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PAS-PER
PATIALA, or PUTTIALA , a native state of India, within the Punjab. It is the premier state of the Punjab, and
chief
  of the three
Sikh
  Phulkian statesPatiala, Natha and
Jind
 . It consists of three detached blocks of territory, mostly in the plains, though one portion extends into the hills near
Simla
 . Area 5412 sq. m.; pop. (1901), 1,596,692; estimated revenue, 440,000; military force (including Imperial Service troops), 3429 men. The state was founded by a
Sikh
  chieftain about 1763, and came under British
protection
 , with the other cis-Sutlej states, in 1809. Patiala remained conspicuously loyal to the British during the Mutiny of 1857, Narindar Singh, its ruler, setting an example to the other Sikh states which was of the utmost value. The maharaja, Rajendra Singh, who died in 1900, was devoted to riding and
sport
 . He took
part
  personally in the
Tirah
  campaign of 1897-98, with a battalion of his own Imperial Service
infantry
  and a field troop of Imperial Service lancers. In recognition of his services on this occasion he received the G.C.S.I. He was succeeded by his son, Bhupindar Singh, who was born in 1891. The town of Patiala has a station on the branch of the North-Western railway from Rajpura to Bhatinda. Pop. (1901), 53,545 It contains several fine
modern
  buildings, including palaces, hospitals and schools.
See Phulkian States Gazetteer (Lahore, 1909).
