Reign
Inscriptions discovered at Ramgaya, opposite the Gadadhar temple at Gaya, at Guneria in the southern part of the Gaya district, at Itkhori in the Hazaribagh district of Jharkhand, describe his reign.
Earlier, it was thought that the greater part of Magadha up to even northern Bengal had come under the suzerainty of the emperor Mahendrapala I.[4]: 21 However, that theory has been debunked due to the discovery of a Pala king named Mahendrapala, whose inscriptions were mistakenly attributed to his Gurjara namesake.
