c8.s13.21

Rājēndra-Dēva, his younger brother, backed by the elder brother's army, had invaded the Iraṭṭapāḍi Seven-and-a-half Lakh country and erected a pillar of victory at Kollāpuram (Mb 107, Kl 107). It was in revenge for this that Āhavamalla attacked the Chōlas at Koppam. Rājēndra-Dēva was present at the battle, and when his brother died took command of the army and secured the throne. Notwithstanding that his brother the king had fallen, and that he himself was severely wounded and had lost many of his principal leaders, he contrived to slay the Chālukya king's younger brother Jayasinga, Pulakēśi, Daśavarmma, Nanni-Nulamba, and other princes without number, so that Āhavamalla fled in terror (Bn 108). Rājēndra followed the example of his brother in bestowing royal titles on his uncle, his brothers, his sons and grandsons (Bn 108).
