First Anglo-Sikh War was fought in 1845-46, which resulted in Punjab getting, partially, under control by the British, after the expansion. It is believed that British prepared for the war in 1843 when Lord Ellenborough discussed the possibilities of military occupation of Punjab with the home government. At the time of war, British total number of military troops in Punjab were around 86,023 men with 116 guns, in which, 45,500 men were armed with 98 guns in the hill stations of Subathu and Kasauli, with 60,000 Sikh Soldiers. With more than 10,000 Sikhs killed, British won the battle and effective power went into the hands of Colonel Henry Lawrence which also helped them to occupy Kasur. Maharani Jind Kaur continued as the regent and Raja Lal Singh as servant of Maharaja Duleep Singh.nThe Punjab Government built Anglo Sikh war memorial at Ferozeshah, Ferozepur at Moga Road. The memorial was built to honor the soldiers who died fighting against British army at Chellianwala on 13 January 1849; Sabhraon on 10 February 1846; Mudki on 18 December 1845; and Ferozeshsh on 21–22 December 1845.

Good place to visit and learn about the Anglo-Sikh war.nThe place is in desperate need of funds from Government as the museum building is in bad shape and the boundary wall has collapsed at various places. There is no provision of cooler or filter for drinking water.nEven in this sorry state of the museum, the staff was very helpful and ready to explain the war history.

Anglo Sikh war Memorial Museum is situated on Moga Ferozepur GT road, Museum educates about battle between Sikhs and East India Company. Condition of Museum is very poor now a days.
