c31.s6.16

The last Chandēl king to play any considerable part upon the stage of history was Paramardi, or Parmāl (1165–1203), whose reign is memorable for his defeat in 1182 by Prithivīrājā Chauhān, and for the capture of Kālanjar in 1203 (A. H. 599) by Kutb-ud-dīn Ībak.² The Chauhān and Chandēl war occupies a large space in the popular Hindī epic, the *Chand-Rāisā*, which is familiar to the people of Upper India.
