Vanit Nalwa

Hari Singh Nalwa was the Chief Marshall of the Sikh Empire's Khalsa forces and one of the most fiercest warriors in world history who trumped and disbanded the Afghan Durrani Empire.

An European observer recorded in the 1881 edition of the foreign newspaper Tidbts:

"Some people might think that Napoleon was a great General. Some might name Marshall Hendenburgh, Lord Kitchener, General Karobzey or Duke of Wellington etc. And some going further might say Halaku Khan, Changez Khan, Richard or Allaudin etc. But let me tell you that in the North of India a General of the name of Hari Singh Nalwa of the Sikhs prevailed.
