'''Mangalgarh''' is a [[panchayat]] village in the [[Berasia]] tehsil of [[Bhopal district]], Madhya Pradesh, India.<ref>{{cite book | title = Reports of National Panchayat Directory | url = http://offerings.nic.in/directory/adminreps/viewGPmapcvills.asp?gpcode=134833&rlbtype=V | accessdate = 2011-11-03 | publisher = Ministry of Panchayati Raj }}</ref>

== History ==

Mangalgarh was a small [[Rajput]] principality in the 17th century, ruled by Raja Anand Singh Solanki. The Pathan mercenary [[Dost Mohammad Khan, Nawab of Bhopal|Dost Mohammad Khan]] provided protection to Mangalgarh. The dowager mother of the Raja had taken a great liking to Dost Mohammad Khan. After the Rajas's death, she appointed him the ''mukhtar'' (guardian) of Mangalgarh, around 1708. Dost was tasked with protecting the dowager Rani (queen) and her estate. When the Rajput neighbours of Mangalgarh, led by the [[Thakur (Indian title)|Thakur]] of Parason (now a village in Berasia tehsil), formed an alliance to counter the growing power of the Rani of Mangalgarh, Dost Mohammad Khan defeated them. During his service at Mangalgarh, Dost married a Rajput girl from the Mangalgarh royal family, who later converted to Islam and adopted the name Fatah Bibi (also spelled Fateh Bibi). After the heirless Rani's death, he usurped the principality, which later became the part of his [[Bhopal State]].<ref name="Shaharyar_Begums_2000">{{cite book | title = The Begums of Bhopal | author = Shaharyar M.
