c15.21
The intervals between his Pāṇḍyan wars were employed by Parāntaka in extending his power elsewhere. The Sholingur rock inscription²¹ of the ninth year mentions that the Gaṅga Pṛthivīpati II got the title of Bāṇādhirāja from Parāntaka and that he distinguished himself in a fight at Vallāḷa. The Udayēndiram plates of Pṛthivīpati²² state that Parāntaka uprooted two Bāṇa kings and conquered the Vaidumbas.
