MEHIDPOOR, a town of Hindustan, in one of the outlying possessions of Indore, or the territory belonging to the Holkar family. It is situated on the banks of the River Seepra, and is celebrated as the scene of the decisive victory obtained by the British in 1817 over the army of Holkar, whose power was in consequence effectually and irretrievably overthrown. The loss on the part of the British amounted to 174 killed and 604 wounded; that of the Mahratta chief was estimated at 3000 men. In the treaty of Mundesor, concluded shortly after, Holkar submitted to terms which reduced him to the condition of an insignificant and dependent power. Lat. 23. 30., Long. 75. 40.
