Jagdishpur is a town, community development block, and former pargana in Musafirkhana tehsil of Amethi district, Uttar Pradesh, India. It is also called Nihalgarh, Chak Jangla, or Nihalgarh-Jagdispur. The distinction is that Jagdishpur was the original village, Chak Jangla was an outlying hamlet of Jagdishpur, and Nihalgarh was a fort built in Chak Jangla in the early 1700s and that no longer exists. The town is located at the crossroads between the Lucknow-Jaunpur and Raebareli-Faizabad highways.
