History of Gujrat:
Gujrat is being with mainly old Hindu civilization and the legends of the Hindu mythology. Raja Jay Dharat was the first who ruled Gujrat. After his death there were several Rajas who ruled Gujrat. One of them was Raja Bachan Lal who built "Ude-Nagri" ( which means the city of greeneries and pleasant smells). He married with Rani Gojran. After his death, Rani Gojran become the ruler and she renamed this place as "Gujar Nagar" which by the time, has now become the Gujrat. However, whatever, is said above are all the hindu stories. The main history of Gujrat originates from the days of Alexander, The Great, capturing after Egypt, Palestine, Syria, and Babal, reached the territories of south west regions of them India (Now Pakistan Areas) and conquered those top. He crossed the Jehlum River in the night and defeated Raja Poras in a historical battle. After Alexander's death several other aliens have also attacked and ruled over Gujrat. After some times Hindus again recaptured their areas.

During Mehmood Gazanvi region India was conquered by Muslims, and Ayub Malik was made Governor of Lahore and also the ruler of Gujrat and Punjab. At the time of Moughals these areas were included in Moughal Empire. I 1580, when great Moughal Emperor Akbar-e-Azam was passing through Gujrat he saw the worsening condition of Gujrat and felt pity, So he ordered to reconstruct the city. In those days there were two sects of people, Jats and Gujars, living in the Gujrat. The Jats did not care for the city but Gujars agree with Akbar proposal and collected an amount of one and half Lac Rupees. The city of Gujrat was constructed with its all dignity. It remained under Muslim rule till Aurang Zeb Alamgir. After the death of Alamgir the Mughals began to lose their grip and Punjab was divided among sikhs.

(Feb. 21, 1849), engagement between the Sikh army of Sher Singh and a British-Indian army led by Hugh Gough, 1st Baron (later 1st Viscount)Gough, at Gujrat (now in Pakistan). It was the last and decisive battle in the Second Sikh War (1848?49), leading to the British annexation of the Punjab (Pañjab).

The British used artillery to silence the Sikh guns, then carried the Sikh lines and broke up the army of 50,000 in pursuit. Sher Singh surrendered on March 12, ending the war, and the Punjab was annexed by the governor-general, James Ramsey, 10th Earl (later 1st Marquess ) of Dalhousie. The battle rehabilitated Gough's military reputation; he had been criticized for his habit of frontal attacks and his failure to use artillery.
