c18.38
The Tamil inscription says that after the capture of Kōśalai-nāḍu, the Cōḷa general attacked and overthrew in order Dharmapāla of Daṇḍabhukti, Raṇaśūra of southern Lāḍa and Gōvindacandra of Vaṅgāḷa before he fought with Mahīpāla of Uttara-lāḍa and reached the Ganges. The Tiruvālaṅgāḍu plates, on the other hand, state that the attack on Raṇaśūra preceded that on Dharmapāla, and that the overthrow of Dharmapāla led the Cōḷa general to the banks of the Ganges.
