But it is perhaps significant that he is designated a \*Samrāṭ\* in his Tewar inscription (line 4). This may indicate some measure of military success. His Rewah grant shows that the fortune which apparently attended his brother in his struggle against the Candellas was continued in his reign. He must at any rate have ruled over the whole of Baghelkhand. Our inference regarding Jayasiṁha's success in war seems to be confirmed by his son's Kumbhi grant, which tells us that on hearing his coronation ' the king of Gurjara deserted his weak kingdom, so also the Turuṣka; while the chieftain of Kuntala neglected amorous dalliance; other kings too, daffing the world aside, fled beyond the ocean.'¹ The Gopalpur stone-inscription of his son Vijayasiṁha gives us the name of one of his queens, Gosaladevī.² - [Previous: v2.c29.s2.238](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s2.238) - [Next: v2.c29.s2.240](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s2.240) - [Up: v2.c29.s2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s2.239](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s2.239) · Pramāṇa
