THE GUARDIAN OF GUJARAT |
|
|
| The
Shilahara king was supported by his suzerain, but the confederate forces of Bhoja,
Rajendra Chola and Gangeya Vikramaditya were too powerful for Jayasimha. In one campaign,
Jayasimha appears to have worsted Bhoja; for it is stated in one of the Chalukyan
inscriptions that Bhoja became a lotus to the moon', which was Jayasimha. "He
searched out, beset, pursued, ground down and put to fight the confederated forces of
Malava".9 The campaign, however, ended in favour
of the powerful confederacy. The final battle with Jayasimha II was fought in Konkana. The
king of Konkana be came a vassal of Bhoja, and a part of the Chalukya dominions including
the Nasik district was annexed to the empire of Bhoja.
