a small state of British India, under the superintendence of the presidency of Bombay, lies between N. Lat. 23° 57' and 24° 41', and between E. Lon. 71° 51' and 72° 45'. It is bounded on the N. by the Rajpoot principality of Serohee, E. by Keyralla and Daunta, S. by the district of Puttan, and W. by Thurraid; area, 1850 square miles. The north-east part of the country is occupied with mountains, from which the rivers Bunass, Surruawuttee, and Numrudakee take their origin, and flow into the Rurn. The reigning family of Pahlunpore is of Afghan origin, and received this country from the Emperor of Delhi towards the end of the seventeenth century. This state being in 1813 in a condition of anarchy and civil war, the British government interfered to restore order. An arrangement was accordingly made that Futeh Khan, the rightful heir, should reign under the guardianship, during his minority, of his uncle, Shumshere Khan. But the latter, having failed to fulfill his agreement, was in 1817 deprived of his authority; and Futeh Khan finding himself unable to manage his affairs, a British agent was sent to superintend the finances, but with no power to interfere, except by recommendation, with the internal affairs of the state. No tribute is paid to the British beyond the expenses of this agent, but L5000 is paid to the Guicowar. The average annual revenue is little less than L30,000; the expenditure, exclusive of the above tribute, L20,000. Pop. 130,000. The town of Pahlunpore stands on the road between Neemuch and Deessa, 80 miles N. of Ahmedabad. It is walled, and has some trade and manufactures. Pop. estimated at 30,000.
