Sugrīva founded a new kingdom at Ṛṣyamūka mountain. Mainda, Dvivida, Hanūmān and Jāmbavān were the ministers of Sugrīva. It was while Sugrīva was thus living on Ṛṣyamūkācala that Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa came that way in the course of their search for Sītā. In accordance with the agreement made between Sugrīva and Rāma, the latter killed Bāli and crowned Sugrīva as the King of Kiṣkindhā. (Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, Kiṣkindhā Kāṇḍa, and Mahābhārata, Vana Parva, Chapter 280).
