The second reference to Nanda Kings is to be found in line 12 of the Hathigumpha inscription and in the account of the 12th year of the reign of Khāravela. In that year Khāravela caused great terror to the kings of the North-western frontier, terrorized the people of Magadha, caused his elephants to enter the Sugāṅga Palace of Pāṭaliputra and brought back the image of a Jina which had been carried away by Nandarāja.
