EVENTS
1843: Sindh Governor, Sir Charles Napier, while writing to the Governor-General of India criticizes the role played by Major Outram in Sindh. He writes that Major Outram had many years lived on terms of personal contacts with Sindh Rulers, and I vainly imagined he had some influence with them- an influence which it was my duty to call into play in the hopes of preventing war. I therefore sent him to Hyderabad, but I saw that the Amirs were making use of him to ensure the destruction of the force under my command. (Source: ‘Correspondence related to Sinde’).
