It was RanjitSinghs ambition to weld the whole of the Purijab into a single Sikh empire, while the British claimed the territory south of the Sutlej by right of conquest from the Mahrattas.
In 1808 Charles Metcalfe was sent to settle this question- with RanjitSingh, and a treaty was concluded at Amritsar on the 15th of April 1809.
In his private life RanjitSingh was selfish, avaricious, drunken and immoral, but he had a genius for command and was the only man the Sikhs ever produced strong enough to bind them together.
