This paper focus into the intricate dynamics of sovereignty within the context of the Sambalpur Princely States during the British colonial era. Focusing on the nuanced interactions between the British colonial administration and the indigenous rulers of Sambalpur, it explores the mechanisms through which sovereignty was negotiated, maintained, and sometimes contested. Drawing upon archival sources, official records, and historical accounts, the study unveils the multifaceted strategies employed by both parties to navigate the complex terrain of governance, diplomacy, and power dynamics. It sheds light on the strategies of collaboration, coercion, and adaptation utilized by the British authorities to assert control while accommodating local customs and structures. Moreover, it examines the responses of the Sambalpur rulers, ranging from acquiescence to resistance, as they grappled with the challenges posed by colonial intervention. By analysing this historical case study, the paper offers insights into broader questions of sovereignty, colonial governance, and indigenous agency, enriching our understanding of the complex legacies of British imperialism in India
