Khem Kaur was the daughter of Sirdar Jodh Singh Bhangi. She was married to prince Kharag Singh (later Maharaja) in 1816. Maharaja Kharag Singh died on November 4, 1840. During the Second Anglo-Sikh War (1848-49), she helped the Sikh forces and the leaders. Due to this role her allowance was reduced and some of her Jagir was confiscated.
