The Jagdishpur Raj was a feudatory zamindari controlled by a cadet branch of the Ujjainiya dynasty. It was situated in modern-day Jagdishpur, in the erstwhile Shahabad district (now in Bhojpur district) of Bihar. The capital of the principality was the town of Jagdishpur by which the principality derived its name.
