The British East India Company officially annexes the Kingdom of Punjab on March 29, 1849, following a decisive victory against the Sikh Empire at the Battle of Gujrat in February 1849. This conquest, concluding the Second Anglo-Sikh War, ended the last major independent kingdom in India and integrated the region into the British Raj.
