THREE PLATES FROM PANDUKESVAR
Tanganapura was prouably the district round it. The identification of the vishaya of Antaranga and the localities called Harshapura, Nambaranga-grāma, Varēshika-grāma, Pari-grama, Yōyikagrāma, Chadavaka, Ravvapallika, Sisankata, Anvärigantika, Samehaka-grama, etc., is uncertain. The Ganga or the upper course of the Ganges has been mentioned as the boundary of a piece of land as in the case of Padmata's charter. The bank of the Vishnu-ganga has also been mentioned as the place where the god Narayana had been installed. The reference is no doubt to Vishnuprayag which is a halting place on the bank of the Alaknanda in Pargana Painkhand. "The name Vishnuganga ", says the Garhwal District Gazetteer, 1921, p. 204, "is also given to the river (Alaknanda) for some distance of its course above this Chatti (halting place) owing probably to the existence of the Vishnukund in its waters just below the temple which is built on a tongue of rock between the Dhauli and Alaknanda rivers, one and a half miles from Joshimath."
