Dhondia Wagh (died 10 September 1800) was a military soldier, adventurer and plunderer in 18th century India. He started his career in the service of Hyder Ali, the ruler of Mysore. During the Third Anglo-Mysore War, he deserted Ali's successor Tipu Sultan, and subsequently raided territories on the Maratha-Mysore border. After the Marathas forced him to retreat, he sought refuge from Tipu and converted to Islam, changing his name to Malik Jahan Khan. After Tipu's death in the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War, he raised a force comprising soldiers from the former Mysore Army, and took control of northern part of the Mysore Kingdom. He styled himself as Ubhaya-Lokadheeshwara ("King of two Worlds"). The British East India Company as well as the Maratha Peshwa sent armies to check his rising power. He was ultimately defeated and killed by a British force led by Arthur Wellesley.

After the British East India Company defeated Tipu Sultan in 1799, Dhondia Wagh and other prisoners were freed by the British troops. Wagh reached Shikaripur, where he raised a band of soldiers from Tipu's former army. ... By July 1799, he had become enough of a nuisance for the British to send a force against him.
