Answers
"Chatar Singh was transferred to Hazara, as the legislative leader of the region, he collided with the tyrannical Assistant British Resident, Captain James Abbott. Captain's collaborator and consultant for the outline of limit between the Punjab and Kashmir which had been given away by the British to the Dogra Raja Gulab Singh for his administrations to them amid the first Anglo-Sikh war. Since, the Multan episode in April 1848, James Abbott had been consistently answering to the Resident at Lahore that won discontent among the Sikh troops positioned at Hazara; in September 1848, he claimed that a scheme was being brought forth by Chatar Singh, its Sikh senator, to subvert British power in Punjab.
Abbott accused Atarivala of high injustice, and in the lead of some neighbourhood boss and huge quantities of Muslim duties he raised and he walked on Haripur to remove the Sikh senator. At this crossroads, Commodore Canora, a gunnery officer in the Fort, who was in mystery correspondence with Captain Abbott, declined to move his battery and was subsequently shot down at Chatar Singh's requests. Under the requests of the British Resident at Lahore, this Hazara episode was examined by Captain Nicholson who in his inquiry report absolved Chatar Singh as well as defended the guarded estimates he had taken to spare the attacked capital of Hazara from Abbott's Muhammadan soldiers of fortune."
