Order of the Star of India

:''The article is about the order of chivalry known as "Star of India". For other items of the same name, please see disambiguation at Star of India.
The Most Exalted Order of the Star of India is an order of chivalry founded by Queen Victoria in 1861. The Order includes members of three classes:
# Knight Grand Commander ()
# Knight Commander ()
# Companion ()
No appointments have been made since the 1948 New Year Honours, shortly after the Partition of India in 1947. With the death of the last surviving knight, the Maharaja of Alwar, the order became dormant in 2009.
The motto of the order is ''Heaven's light our guide''. The "Star of India", the emblem of the order, also appeared on the flag of the Viceroy of India and other flags used to represent British India.
The order is the senior order of chivalry associated with the Indian Empire (British Raj); the junior order is the Most Eminent Order of the Indian Empire, and there was also, for women only the Imperial Order of the Crown of India. It is the fifth-most-senior British order of chivalry, following the Most Noble Order of the Garter, the Most Ancient and Most Noble Order of the Thistle, the Most Illustrious Order of Saint Patrick, and the Most Honourable Order of the Bath.
==History==

Several years after the Indian Mutiny and the consolidation of Great Britain's power as the governing authority in India, it was decided by the British Crown to create a new order of knighthood to honour Indian Princes and Chiefs, as well as British officers and administrators who served in India. On 25 June 1861, the following proclamation was issued by the Queen:
The first appointees were:
* HRH The Prince Consort
* HRH The Prince of Wales
* The Rt Hon Earl Canning, GCB, Governor-General of India and Grand Master of the Most Exalted Order of the Star of India〔
* HH Nawab Mir Tahniat Ali Khan Bahadur, Afzal ad-Dawlah, Asaf Jah V, the Nizam of Hyderabad
* HH Jayajirao Scindia, Maharaja of Gwalior〔
* HH Raja Bahadur Bindeshwari Prasad Singh Deo Raja of Udaipur state in Chota Nagpur States.
* HH Maharaja Duleep Singh, former Maharaja of the Sikh Empire
* HH Ranbir Singh, Maharaja of Jammu and Kashmir〔
* HH Tukojirao Holkar, Maharaja of Indore〔
* HH Narendra Singh, Maharaja of Patiala〔
* HH Khanderrao Gaekwad, Maharaja of Baroda〔
* HRH Maharaja Bir Shamsher Jang Bahadur Rana of Nepal
* HH Nawab Sikander Begum, Nawab Begum of Bhopal〔
* HH Yusef Ali Khan Bahadur, Nawab of Rampur〔
* The Rt Hon Viscount Gough, Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army〔
* The Rt Hon Lord Harris, Governor of Madras
* The Rt Hon Lord Clyde, Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army〔
* Sir George Russell Clerk, Governor of Bombay
* Sir John Laird Mair Lawrence, Bt, GCB, Lieutenant-Governor of the Punjab〔
* Sir James Outram, Bt, GCB, Member of the Viceroy's Council〔
* Sir Hugh Henry Rose, GCB, Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army〔
The Order of the Indian Empire, founded in 1877, was intended to be a less exclusive version of the Order of the Star of India; consequently, many more appointments were made to the former than to the latter.
The last appointments to the orders relating to the British Empire in India were made in the 1948 New Year Honours, some months after the Partition of India in August 1947. The orders have never been formally abolished, and Elizabeth II succeeded her father George VI as Sovereign of the Orders when she ascended the throne in 1952. She remains Sovereign of the Order to this day. However, there are no living members of the order.
*The last Grand Master of the Order, Admiral of the Fleet The Earl Mountbatten of Burma (1900–1979), was murdered by the Provisional IRA on 27 August 1979.
*The last surviving Knight Grand Commander, HH Maharaja Sree Padmanabhadasa Sir Chithira Thirunal Balarama Varma GCSI, GCIE, Maharajah of Travancore (1912–1991), died on 19 July 1991 in Trivandrum.
*The last surviving Knight Commander, HH Maharaja Sri Sir Tej Singh Prabhakar Bahadur KCSI (1911–2009), Maharaja of Alwar, died on 15 February 2009 in New Delhi.
*The last surviving Companion of the Order, Vice-Admiral Sir Ronald Brockman CSI (1909–1999), died on 3 September 1999 in London.
