⁹ Edited by Kielhorn, *EI*, Vol. II, pp. 116-30. Re-edited by D. R. Bhandarkar, *IA* 1913, pp. 57-64. The record is sometimes called *Haras Inscription*, see *EI*, Vol. XIX, *Appendix*, p. 14, No. 82. The *Sakrai stone-inscription* is referred by some to the reign of Vigraharāja. It is engraved on a slab 'in the principal niche of the exterior of the shrine' of Sākambharī at Sakrai, some 20 miles distant from Raghunathgarh, Jaipur State, Rajputana. The record has not been properly read but it seems to refer itself to the reign of the Cāhavāna prince Vigraharāja. It records that Dayikā, wife of Vatsarāja (no doubt, the paternal uncle of Vigraharāja referred to in the Harṣa inscription) repaired the temple of Saṅkarādevī. It is dated in *Saṁvatsara* 55 *Māgha Sudi* 5. The date is taken to be a case of omitted hundreds and equivalent to V. S. 1055. *ASI, WC*, 1909-10, p. 57; in *EI*, Vol XIX, *Appendix*, p. 17, No. 97 the inscription is referred 'apparently' to the time of king Vatsarāja, successor (?) of Vigraharāja.
