The British gained control of both states 1889 and 1892. .. The Tham (Chief) of that time Azur Khan sent in exile to Kashmir. The British retained Nagar's status as a principality until 1947 but together with Hunza it was considered a vassal of Kashmir, although never ruled directly by it. . The people of Nagar were ruled by a local Mir for more than 1200 years, which came to an end in 1974. Although never ruled directly by neighbouring Kashmir or the British The rulers of Nagar sent annual tributes to the Kashmir Durbar until 1947, Nagar was a vassal of Kashmir from the time of Maharaja Ranbir Singh of Jammu and Kashmir. In 1947, the state acceded to Pakistan, but continued as semi autonomous state. When Ayub Khan's dictatorship ended in Pakistan and the democratic government of the Pakistan Peoples Party under Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto came into power through elections it realized the sentiments of the people against the Mir for democracy so the Government freed the prisoners of the movement and dissolved the Mirs of Hunza and Nagar and were merged into the Northern Areas in 1974 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
