The Khālimpur grant of the Emperor Dharmapāladeva of Gauḍa (c. 800 A.D.) speaks of the king of Bhoja along with kings of Matsya, Kuru, Yadu and Yavana as having uttered benedictions at the coronation ceremony of the king of Kānyakubja.⁸ R. D. Banerjee holds that the king of Bhoja was defeated by Dharmapāla, and compelled to accept Cakrāyudha instead of Indrarāja as lord of Kānyakubja. In Banerjee’s view, Bhoja is to be identified with part of present Rajputana.¹
