The Dynasties of the Kanarese Districts of the Bombay Presidency from the Earliest Historical Times to the Musalman Conquest c8.s12.206

² Ind. Ant. Vol. VII. p. 241; with a notice of the cancelled grant, on the backs of the plates, at p. 251.—The description of Vijayavarmarâja includes three of the expressions which in the Gupta records are always applied to Samudragupta (see Gupta Inscriptions, p. 14, note 4).—Dr. Bhândarkar (Early History of the Dekkan, 1884, p. 42) has expressed the opinion that this grant is a forgery. But I cannot find any grounds for endorsing his view. The Gujarât Chalukya grant which I do view with suspicion, is the Nirpan grant of Tribhuvanâśraya-Nâgavardhana (see page 357 above, and page 358, note 1).
