Maharajas of Patiala history

[puzzled]

A summary of the maharajas of Patiala. They have been traitors from the beginning, the founder of the state ala singh and his family were excommunicated by dal khalsa in the 18th century so i dont know why these people are still considered Sikhs. The founder ala singh assisted abduli during his invasions and was given the title of maharaja by abduli. he later helped the mughals and then betrayed abduli by siding with the marthas. During anglo sikh war the patiala state sided with the british and then during the early 20th century they were part of the british raj.  After the anglo sikh wars maharaja karam singh of patiala ordered his army to shoot nihung singhs on the spot.  Today amrinder is a congress leader.       This family is an enemy of the Khalsa and has always been, the very foundation of the family is linked to abduli
