GULAB KAUR, RANI


Rani Gulab Kaur (? – 1838), daughter of a landlord, was born at village Jagdeo (district Amritsar). She was married to Maharaja Ranjit Singh. The marriage was performed by way of Chadar Andazi (by knotting scarf), a custom by which usually widows were remarried in those days. She died at Lahore in 1838.
