Proclaiming that Pāñcālī, who was responsible for the death of their brother would also be burnt to death on the same pyre, the Upa-Kīcakas forcibly took her with them. Hearing the heart-rending cries of Pāñcālī Bhīma rushed to the spot and killed all the Upa-Kīcakas and saved Pāñcālī from death. In the presence of the Virāṭa king the cremation of Kīcaka and the Upa-Kīcakas took place. (Virāṭa Parva, Chapter 13 et seq). - [Previous: c7.2436](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.2436) - [Next: c7.2438](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.2438) - [Up: c7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7) ## Cites (1) - [Mahābhārata](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.2437](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.2437) · Pramāṇa
