The Dynastic History of Northern India (Early Mediaeval Period) v1.c20.60

v1.c20.60

The facts revealed by the inscription mentioned above show that the Gurjaras in 946 A.D. held the Malwa region, and it is not unlikely that their power was still acknowledged by the feudatories in South and Eastern Rajputana and Central India. Mr. R. D. Banerji therefore is certainly wrong when he asserts that Mālava had never been reoccupied after the northern campaign of Indra III.∗ However nominal the allegiance paid by these feudatories stationed at Mandu, Ujjayinī, and the places near about Partabgarh and Mandasor, it is clear that the occupation of Ujjayinī by the Rāṣṭrakūṭas was not continuous till the time of Kṛṣṇa III (*c.* 940-70 A.D).
