Answer:
Chatar Singh Atarivala (d. 1855), commander and provincial governor under minor Maharaja Duleep Singh, was the son of Jodh Singh Atarivala. Jodh Singh had joined the service of Maharaja Ranjit Singh in 1805 when he received large jagirs in the Pothohar country. On the death of his father in that year, the jagirs passed to Chatar Singh, then amounting to over a lakh of rupees annually.
Resident Frederick Currie, notwithstanding Nicholson`s report, issued orders which amounted to Chatar Singh`s virtual dismissal and the confiscation of his jagirs which drove him to open defiance. The Hazara revolt now escalated into hostilities between the British and the Sikhs. After their defeat at Gujrat on 21 February 1849, Chatar Singh and his sons, Raja Sher Singh and Avtar Singh, were detained by the British in their village. Imprisoned first at Allahabad, they were removed to Fort William at Calcutta to prevent them from being in contact with the exiled Queen Mother, Maharani Jind Kaur. They were released in January 1854. Chatar Singh died in Calcutta on 27 December 1855.
