4 Maham. Shri Rupāde (third wife of Jaitrasimba).
It may be noted that the elephant in front of each of these niches, was in memory of the male member of the Tejapāla family, figuring in the corresponding niche. Thus the first elephant, according to the label below it, had on it a figure of Shri Chandapa, on the second rode Shrī Chandraprasāda, on the third was a figure of Shri Soma, and so on.
The sequence is broken in the case of the tenth niche noted below since on the elephant was installed the figure of Maham. Lāvanyasimha (son of Tejapāla and Anupamādevī) while in the niche opposite is a portrait sculpture of Maham. Suhaďasimha. Niche X:
. Maham. Sbrī Suhadasimha ( son of minister Tejapāla by Suhaņādevī).
2 Maham. Shrī Suhadāde ( wife of Suhadasimha ).
3 Maham. Shrī Salaşhaņāde (Salakhaņāde = Sat-Lakşhaņādevi-second wife of Suhadasimha).
In the first niche, on both sides of the feet of Achārya, Śri Udayaprabhasūri are two smaller figures of Jaina monks in a standing attitude, one of them has folded his arms in worship of the teacher, the second carries a stick in his right hand and the ogho (rajoharana or broom) in the left. His mouth-piece hangs from the string at the girdle keeping the lower garment in position.
On each side of Vijayasenasūri, again, is carved a small attendant figure, the one on the right with folded hands is a shrāvaka, the other on the left is a monk carrying the ogho and the daņda (long stick carried by Jaina monks while walking ).
