Unsuccessful Efforts of Amar Singh Thapa for Treaty with British

History of Gorkha /Nepal Rule over Kumaun, Garhwal and Himachal (1790-1815) -141   
   History of Uttarakhand (Garhwal, Kumaon and Haridwar) -662

                          By: Bhishma Kukreti (A History Student) 
                           Amar Singh Thapa was aware of weaknesses of Nepalese resources in west of Kali River (Kumaun, Garhwal and Himachal). He was aware stronger position of East India Company against Nepal.
            Through Ochterloni, Amar Singh Thapa sent message to Governor General Hastings for treaty but Governor General refused the suggestion of Amar Singh Thapa (Balchandra Sharma).
          Amar Singh Thapa tried to strengthen the position of Nepalese army in West of Kali River but he was totally failure in recruiting new soldiers as the citizens were totally against Nepalese way of rule.
                 Weaknesses of Nepal against British

           Nepal was inferior before British in arm, ammunitions, friends and support of citizens. Nepal had around twelve thousand soldiers. The newly recruits in Nepal army in Doti, Kumaon, Garhwal and Himachal were anxious for Nepal loosing war or power.  East India Company was more organized and powerful in terms of number of soldiers, food and armed supply. Nepalese commanders were not trained for fighting with strategy.  Nepalese commanders were trained for guerilla attack and suppressing citizens with all cruel methods. Nepalese soldiers were far ahead in bravery, courage, self pride, and sacrifice for the master, duties and bearing power in worst conditions.
      Nepalese were weak in other aspects of war. Nepalese Commanders were more dependent on the strategy that British army was not trained for hill war.
