The Mughal conquest of Jessore in 1611-1612 was a military campaign by the Mughal Empire against the rebellious Zamindar of Jessore, Pratapaditya. Jessore was a vassal of the Mughal Empire, and the campaign against Pratapaditya was prompted by his refusal to support the Mughals in suppressing the rebellion of the Zamindars in Bengal.

The Mughal forces achieved victory over the Jessore forces in a naval battle at Salka in 1611 and subsequently laid siege to the Jessore fort in 1612. Mughal forces under Man Singh I and Islam Khan I captured Pratapaditya and sent him to Delhi.
