Sahib Singh (1773–1813) was the third ruler and the Raja-e-Rajgan (King of Kings) of the Patiala. Singh's reign was noted for the power and influence wielded by his sister, Sahib Kaur, who served as his Chief Minister and the General of Patiala's army.[1] He was also a member of the Phulkian dynasty. In 1809, Singh allied with and pledged loyalty to the British Empire.[2]
