Bhaisunda, also spelt 'Bhaisaunda', was a princely state in India during the British Raj.

History

Bhaisaunda state was founded in 1812 by the Kalinjar family. It was one of the Chaube Jagirs, which were part of the Bagelkhand Agency of British India.

Practically all the inhabitants of the Jagir were Hindu.[1] The capital was the village of Bhaisunda, located at 25° 18′ N, 80° 48′ E.. In 1948, one year after Indian independence, Bhaisunda was merged into the Indian state of Vindhya Pradesh.

Rulers

The rulers of Bhaisunda were titled 'Chaube' and from 1885, 'Rao Chaube'.[2]
