18. Fleet had conjectured that Kiraṇapura may be a mistake for Kṛṣṇapura i. e. Malkhed, the capital of Kṛṣṇa. (I. A , XX, p. 102 n. 26). This view has to be abandoned since the reading in the Pithapuram inscription (foot-note No. 11) is now confirmed by the Maliyapundi record (foot-note No. 10). Foot note No. 11 further shows that Kiraṇapura was a city of Sankila and not of Kṛṣṇa. The latter may have been simply staying there for the time being. In view of my identification of this place there is now no scope for conjectures.
