c11.s4.29

This corresponds to the Pragjyotisa janapada of the Purāṇas. This was a famous janapada on the fringe of the 'Eastern Country'. According to *Raghuvamsa* this janapada lay evidently north of the Brahmaputra river and therefore probably included the whole belt of alluvial land north of the Brahmaputra from the Tistā eastwards.
