G. H. KHARE.-A note on three copper plate Grants (Proc., 1.H.C., XVIIth Session), Patna, 1956.
P. 134. The donee of the first copper plate, issued by Vijayaditya Chālukya of Badāmi in Saka 627 and in his 10th regnal year at the request (?) of one Vishnurāja of a Sinda dynasty, was a Jaina Achārya connected with the Jina temple of Kundili and belonged to the Käshthächārya tradition to which belonged Vimla. kirti also. Several fields in the vicinity of Kundili were granted for the temple.
The donee of the second copper plate, issued by Räshțrakūța Govinda III in Saka 717, seems to be Achārya belonging to the Kāshthachārya tradition. The charter being incomplete and inscribed in a very bad hand nothing can be made out at present.
King Mayūravarman of the Kadamba dynasty having got a son by the favour of the Jaina goddess Ambikā of Udumbrāja issued the third copper plate in which he paid homage to the goddess with his son Prabhākara and donated the village Udumbrāja (Umbraj, North Satara) and some fields to one Gunadeva, pupil of one Sripāla.
These grants shed much new light on the Jain establishments of two Satara districts and bring to light altogether new personalities.
