Of the three brothers Indra seems to have been the most ambitious. That he had married a Chālukya princess was known since the publication of the Samangad plates, the name of the princess Bhavanāgā came to light with the Bhandak plates⁷⁰ of her brother-in-law Kṛṣṇa I. The recently published Sanjan plates inform us that Bhavanāgā was carried away by force from her marriage pandal at Kaira by Indra I.⁷¹ Since Datidurga, the issue of this union, began his career earlier than c. 750 A.D., the marriage must have taken place some time is c. 725 A.D.. A few more facts about the career of Indra will be narrated in the next chapter, where the career of his illustrious son Dantidurga will be described.
