Basai Muhammadpur (Basaī Muhammadpur), also spelled Basai Mohammadpur, is a village in Firozabad block of Firozabad district, Uttar Pradesh. It is located south of Firozabad. As of 2011, it had a population of 5,055, in 839 households.
Basai Muhammadpur is located south of Firozabad, to the east of a small stream called the Ganda Nala. The land to the west of the village is cut up by ravines that lead to the Ganda Nala. To the southwest, near a small hamlet called Anta ki Marhaiya, the Ganda Nala flows into the Yamuna. East of this is a large patch of dense babul woodland that forms part of the Firozabad Reserved Forest. This forest is due south of Basai Muhammadpur itself, between the village and the Yamuna. Another dense patch of forest is located to the northwest of Basai Muhammadpur, on the other side of the Ganda Nala. The areas north and east of Basai Muhammadpur, though, are dominated by open farmland. To the east of Basai Muhammadpur is the village of Anandipur Karkauli, while to the northeast are Nurpur Kutubpur and the market village of Bilahna.[2]
