AnswerAt that time, Sindh was not a united state. It was under the control of three Amirs, viz, the Amir of Khairpur, the Amir of Hyderabad and the Amir of Mirpur. Therefore, it was not in a position to put up a united front against the English.

The English had established their trading centres at various places in Sindh much earlier. In the beginning of the nineteenth century, they started putting political pressure on it. In 1820, the Amirs were forced to agree that they would not permit any European to settle in Sindh. By that time, danger for Sindh emerged from another direction. Ranjit Singh had comp. -ted his conquest of Punjab. During the period 1823-25, he planned to conquer Sindh. But, the English made it clear that they would not permit Ranjit Singh to interfere in Sindh. It became further clear to the English after the first Afghan War that Sindh was important for them politically because the passage to India through the Bolan pass lay through the territories of the Amirs.
