Yes, Gurkha Army under Amar Singh Thapa was defeated by Khalsa Army under the command of Maharaja Ranjit Singh in the battle of Kangra Fort .
When Gurkha Army launched an expedition on the Kangra Fort which was under the rule of Dewan Mokham Chand , he recalled the Maharaja who accepted the request in exchange of the sovereignty of the fort submitted to him .
Both parties showed equal valour , initially Gurkhas due to their experience of rough and mountainous terrain had advantage but tall structured Sikhs with their long sword were able to tackle them .
