Jammu Division |
It all started in 1846 i.e. when the erstwhile princely state of Jammu & Kashmir was founded by the then ruler of the state, Maharaja Gulab Singh. With the decline of the Sikh empire, the Dogras started enjoying more autonomy over the Jammu region and slowly got complete hold of the Jammu region and then adding to the expansion of the newly found kingdom many areas were annexed to its geographical boundaries, such as Gilgit and Baltistan and Kashmir, and hence the Princely state of Jammu and Kashmir was formed.
