This view also is not free from difficulties. If Karka and his father Govinda of the Antroli-Chharoli record are to be identified with the father and grand-father of Kṛṣṇa I of the main line, Dhruva and Karka I of the former record will have to be identified with Indra I and Dantivarman of the main house. We shall have to assume that either Dhruva and Karka were the *birudas* of Indra I and Dantivarman or vice versa. Rāṣṭrakūṭa kings have used several *birudas*, but there is not a single instance of any of the names Dhruva, Karka, Indra or Dantivarman being used as a *biruda*. So far these names have been known only as personal names.
