v2.c30.s3.6

Of all the three Kacchapaghāta families, it is only this branch which assumes imperial titles. As we have the date A.D. 1120 for the third of this line, we may with probability assign the three princes to the period *c.* 1075-1125 A.D. It is not unlikely that, taking advantage of the weakness of the three neighbouring dynasties, *viz.*, the Candellas of Jejā-bhukti, the Kalachuris of Ḍāhala, and the Paramāras of Mālava, this branch may have established a sovereign power in the valley of Sindh. Nothing is however known about the political incidents of the reigns of these Kacchapaghātas or any of their possible successors.¹
