Krishna led an expendition to Malwa against Paramara king in early 1250 and defeated the Paramara army tho there were no territory changes.[1][2][3][4]
Invasion
editThe Paramara dynasty ruled the Malwa kingdom located to the north of the Yadava kingdom. By the time of Krishna's ascension, the Paramara power and prestige had declined because of invasions from the Iltutmish led Delhi Sultanate. Krishna took advantage of this situation, and invaded Malwa sometime during the reign of the Paramara king Jaitugideva. The invasion must have happened in or before 1250, when the Yadava records first mention it.[1][2][4]
Krishna invaded Malwa in 1250 devastated the country and defeated Paramara forces.The Munoli inscription compares Krishna to Shiva (trinetra) and the Paramara king to the Madana (in Hindu mythology, Shiva incinerates Madana). The Mamadapur inscription also alludes to Krishna's victory over the Paramara king. The invasion does not seem to have resulted in any territorial annexation.[1][2][3]
Aftermath
editKrishna also attempted an invasion of the Vaghela-ruled Gujarat (Gurjara) region. The Vaghela king Visala-deva had married a Hoysala princess: both these kingdoms were traditional rivals of the Yadavas, and the marriage may have provided additional provocation for Krishna's invasion.[1][3]
The conflict was probably limited to a few frontier skirmishes, which variously resulted in advantage for the Yadavas and the Vagehlas, and did not result in any significant territorial changes. Both Yadava and Vaghela records claim victory in this inconclusive conflict.[1][3]
