'''Parshuram Bhau's Carnatic Campaign''' (1790–1792) was a military expedition led by Maratha general Parshuram Bhau Patwardhan during the [[Third Anglo-Mysore War]]. As part of the alliance between the Maratha Empire, the British East India Company, and the Nizam of Hyderabad, the campaign targeted the Kingdom of Mysore under [[Tipu Sultan]]. Maratha forces advanced into the Carnatic region, capturing key fortresses and engaging Mysorean troops. The campaign played a significant role in weakening Mysore and contributed to the eventual Treaty of Seringapatam in 1792, which forced [[Tipu Sultan]] to cede territory and pay indemnities.
