The Phulkian states of Patiala, Nabha & Jind were established by descendants of Chaudhary Phul whose sons Tilok Chand and Ram Chand received pahul from Guru Gobind Singh. The founder of the Patiala state was Ala Singh. By his excellent diplomatic skills he gained favor with both the Mughal emperor and the Afghan invaders, while still being in grace with the Dal Khalsa. In 1761, he was granted the title of Raja by Ahmad Shah Abdali and started construction on the present Qila-i-Mubarak in 1763. “It is the order of Shri Guru ji that Bhai Tiloka and Bhai Rama, may the Guru protect you all, should come to our presence with your troops. We are much pleased with you. Your house is ours. Immediately on the receipt of this order you should come here…Come with your horsemen. Come without fail. My blessings are on you…Do come. I have sent a dress for you.” 2ndBhadon, 1753 (August 2,1696) Hukamnama issued by Guru Gobind Singh to the two brothers (sons of Chaudhary Phul) when he was fighting against the hill chiefsGanda Singh
