c20.s3.22

The conquered territories were constituted as *Vishayas* or Imperial sub-provinces. Two of these *vishayas* are known from later inscriptions of the family, namely, Antarvedī or the Gangetic Doāb and Airikiṇa in Eastern Mālwa. It is significant that a Nāga styled the *Vishayapati* Śarva-nāga, figures as a ruler of Antarvedī as late as the time of Skanda Gupta.
