The Rashtrakutas and their Times c12.s2.27

c12.s2.27

We have already seen how the Paramāra chief Kṛṣṇarāja or Upendra was defeated by Indra III, sometime in c. 915 A.D. The Paramāras continued to be the feudatories of the Rāṣṭrakūṭas down to the time of Kṛṣṇa III, for the recently published copper-plates from Harsola, (32) issued by Siyaka in 949 A.D., referred to Akālavarṣa Pṛthivīvallabha, the son of Amoghavarṣadeva, as the feudal lord of the Paramāras. We find that the Harsola plates refer to villages in Kheṭaka division i. e. modern Kaira district in northern Gujrat, as being under the immediate government of the Paramāras. Southern Gujrat was reconquered by Kṛṣṇa II; it would seem that it was handed over to the Paramāra feudatories by the successors of Indra III for administrative purposes.
