The Battle of Nalapani was fought between the forces of the British East India Company and Nepal. The battle took place around the Nalapani fort, near Dehradun, which was placed under siege by the British between 31 October and 30 November 1814. The forts garrison was commanded by Captain Balbhadra Kunwar, while Major-General Rollo Gillespie was in charge of the attacking British troops. Gillespie was killed on the first day of the siege while rallying his men and despite considerable odds, both in terms of numbers and firepower, Balbhadra and his 600-strong garrison successfully held out against more than 5,000 British troops for over a month.Britishers constructed Khalanga War Memorial in the memory of their Major-General Gillespie and other army men as well as Gorkhas Balbhadra Kunwar to pay tribute to their courage jointly after the battle of Nalapani.
