The fathers of both of them happen to be Jarāsandha. But it is said that after the death of the famous Jarāsandha his son Sahadeva became king. This Sahadeva, with his brother Jayatsena took the side of the Pāṇḍavas and fought against the Kauravas. Hence the King Jayatsena mentioned here must be the son of some other Jarāsandha of the Kingdom of Magadha. - [Previous: c7.1513](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.1513) - [Next: c7.1515](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.1515) - [Up: c7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.1514](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.1514) · Pramāṇa
