  • The Battle of Gujrat was the decisive battle of the Second Anglo-Sikh War, fought on 21 February, 1849, between the forces of the British East India Company, and a Sikh army in rebellion against the Company's control of the Sikh Kingdom, represented by the child Maharaja Duleep Singh who was in British custody in Lahore. The depleted Sikh army, weakened by lack of supplies, was defeated by the Bengal and Bombay Armies of the British East India Company. After it capitulated a few days later, the Punjab was annexed to the East India Company's territories and Duleep Singh was deposed.
  • Bitwa pod Gujrat odbyła się 21 lutego 1848 pomiędzy Wielką Brytanią i Sikhami, podczas II wojny Brytyjczyków z Sikhami w Pendżabie, w dzisiejszym Pakistanie. Bitwa była decydującą o dalszych losach królestwa sikhijskiego, które zostało zaanektowane przez Brytyjską Kompanię Wschodnioindyjską. Brytyjczykami dowodził lord Hugh Gough, który otrzymał rozkaz dymisji po jego źle przeprowadzonej wcześniejszej krwawej bitwie pod Chillianwala ale nie został jeszcze przez nikogo zastąpiony.
  • Under andra sikhkriget trängde den brittiska armén under sir Hugh Gough efter hårda strider, bl.a. vid Chillianwallah mot nordöst. Britterna nådde 22 februari 1849 fram till floden Chenab, 11 mil norr om Punjabs huvudstad Lahore. Den brittiska armén om 20 000 man öppnade här vid Gujrat artillerield mot den 40 000 man starka sikhiska armén. Sedan de sikhiska linjerna börjat svikta stormade sedan brittiskt infanteri och kavalleri mot sikherna, som så gott som helt tillintetgjordes. Medan britterna denna dag led måttliga förluster, tvingades sikherna efter förlusten ge upp kriget, vilket innebar att det tidigare under britterna autonoma sikhiska Punjab blev en brittisk provins.
