About The Book: The Armies of the Native States of India refers to the military forces maintained by the princely states under British rule before 1947. These states, though autonomous in internal matters, had limited military independence. Their armies were mostly traditional, often poorly equipped and trained, and primarily used for ceremonial purposes or internal security. Some larger states like Hyderabad, Mysore, and Gwalior maintained more organized forces. The British regulated these armies through treaties to prevent rebellion or foreign alliances. After independence, these forces were gradually disbanded or merged into the Indian Army, marking the end of princely military autonomy.
