+The '''Battle of Mukandwara Pass''', also known as the '''Battle of Mokandra Pass''' or '''Monson's Retreat''', was fought from 8 to 10 July 1804 between forces of the [[Indore]] Maharaja [[Yashwantrao Holkar]], a member of the [[Maratha Confederacy]] and [[British East India Company]] forces under Colonel [[William Monson (British Army officer)|William Monson]] supported by [[Kota State|Kotah kingdom]] during the [[Second Anglo-Maratha War]]. It was fought just to the south of the Mukandwara Pass, about {{convert|50|km|mi}}. Monson, having overextended his supply line, was retreating toward Kotah when Holkar's forces decimated his rear guard on 10 July. Monson reached Kotah on 12 July, but was forced to abandon his guns in the mud at the [[Chambal River]] on the 15th. Holkar continued to harass Monson's force, which reached [[Kushalgarh]] on 25 Aug. Monson's men were then in a panic as they barely made it to [[Bayana]].<ref name=Naravane>{{Cite book |last=Naravane |first=M.S. |title=Battles of the Honourable East India Company |publisher=A.P.H.
