CHATRAKETU. The second son born to Lakṣmaṇa of his wife Ūrmilā. The eldest son was Takṣaka. Śrī Rāma after his return from the exile established a Kingdom called Agati on the eastern sea-shore and crowned Takṣaka as the King of that place. On the western side after subjugating the mlechhas (low-caste non-Hindu tribe) Śrī Rāma established another kingdom called Candramatī and installed Chatraketu as the King of that country. (Uttara Rāmāyaṇa).
