In 1811 he captured the fortress of [[Chanderi]] on the eastern border of Sindhia&#039;s kingdom from the [[Bundela]] [[Rajput]] rulers. He led Sindhia&#039;s forces against [[British India|British]] during the [[Third Anglo-Maratha War]] (1817–1818), and captured the fortress of [[Garha Kota]] near [[Sagar, Madhya Pradesh|Sagar]] in 1817.<br /> <br /> In 1841, Jean Baptiste Filose, Colonel and Sardar in the services of Maharaja Scindia, permitted a Catholic school to be established in his property at Jamuna Bagh, Agra. A few years later, he made a donation of one lakh rupees, then a fabulous amount, for the construction of a new Catholic school for boys in Agra. The foundation stone was laid in 1846 by Major O&#039;Gorman of the East India Company. This school was named St. Peter&#039;s College and continues today in Agra.
