No Tim,
Not by Bharatpur state forces.. something probably unofficial probably made by one of the British regiments involved AFTER the final victory as a token of remeberance of past events..

If Bharatpur had bothered to commemorate their earlier victory it would have been in Hindi...

Could be anything really, but a nice thing to have nonetheless..
