The Battle of Anandpur, also known as the Battle of Makhowal was fought on 5 March 1753 by the Sikh forces led by Jassa Singh Ahluwalia and Mughal forces led by Adina Beg.

Large losses were sustained by the Sikh forces.

After the Mughals were defeated in the 1752 Battle of Nadaun, Mir Mannu encouraged Adina Beg to attack the Sikhs.
