From the Ambassador's Desk

Dear Friends, It has been over a year since we changed the format of the 'India Digest' from being only in Khmer to bilingual, we are happy that our readers like this new format. This edition of ‘India Digest’ focuses on friendship. Friendship not just between India and Cambodia, which goes back 2000 years when the first Indian merchants and sailors landed in this region, bringing with them the best of India's art, culture and religion. It is this friendship that brought art and culture to a completely new level through the construction of the magnificent Angkor temples. I am extremely happy that this friendship has continued into modern times and we share close fraternal bonds with Cambodia. In this issue, we shall also be talking of friendship with USA, Russia and Japan. India believes in the dictum “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam” which essentially means the world is one family. India’s friendship with any country in the world is not targeted against any other country. Instead, our friendship is driven by the desire to bring the whole world together for the benefit of human kind. As many of you will be aware, in India, we have launched many new initiatives. This includes ‘Makein India’, ‘Swachh Bharat’ (Clean India), ‘Digital India’ and other schemes that will transform India into one of the leading countries of this century. This issue speaks about some of these initiatives and about how we here in Cambodia are doing our bit to further these efforts. I hope you enjoy reading the magazine.

E-Tourist Visa

1. The E-Tourist Visa (E-TV) scheme was launched by the Government of India on November 27, 2014 for the benefit of nationals of 43 countries including Cambodia. A dedicated website http://indianvisaonline.gov.in/visa/tvoa.html has been launched for this purpose. The citizens of the 43 countries can apply online for tourist visas (twice a year, each visit not exceeding 30 days, visa duration non-extendable except in the event of medical emergencies) which shall be granted within 72 hours through email. The purpose of the visit may range from tourism, casual business visit, short term medical treatment, to meeting with friends and relatives. The applicant is expected to take a print of the email and can travel to India through nine designated international airports (Bangalore, Chennai, Kochi, Delhi, Goa, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Mumbai and Thiruvananthapuram). The E-TV scheme involves biometric data capturing of the visitor on arrival at the airport. 2. The list of 43 countries included in the E-TV scheme are given below: Australia, Brazil, Cambodia, Cook Islands, Djibouti, Fiji, Finland, Germany, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Jordan, Kenya, Kiribati, Laos PDR, Luxembourg, Marshall Islands, Mauritius, Mexico, Micronesia, Myanmar, Nauru, New Zealand, Niue, Norway, Oman, Palau, Palestine, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Republic

of Korea, Russia, Samoa, Singapore, Solomon Islands, Thailand, Tonga, Tuvalu, UAE, Ukraine, United States of America, Vanuatu, Vietnam. 3. FAQ can be found on the E-TV website to help guide E-TV applicants. The website also provides a helpline number (+91-11-24300666) and an email address (indiatvoa@gov.in) for applicants to access in addressing any difficulties relating to their E-TV application. 4. The E-TV scheme includes 12 countries (Cambodia, Finland, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Luxemburg, Myanmar, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, Vietnam and Republic of Korea) for which the Visa-On-Arrival scheme was available earlier at 8 airports. Subsequent to the rollout of the E-TV scheme, the earlier Visa-on-Arrival scheme has now been discontinued. As such, Cambodian nationals are kindly requested to be mindful that, as of December 27, 2014, they are no longer eligible for the Visa-on-Arrival system. They can either opt for the E-TV scheme or apply directly through the Embassy of India in Phnom Penh, depending on their visa requirements. 5. For any further queries on this, Embassy of India in Phnom Penh can be contacted by email: info.indembassy@gmail.com.

TATA INTERNATIONAL in Cambodia

Tata International’s facility in Cambodia

Tata International has remained focused on providing the best suited products for Cambodia’s farms and roads backed by superior levels of service – a fact recognized and appreciated by its growing customer base across the country. The response to the initial phase has given Tata International an added impetus to continue expanding its offering of world-class products at economical prices supported by best-inclass service. Staying true to its commitment of supporting communities in line with the Tata group philosophy, Tata International is actively contributing towards improving existing and promoting new-generation education standards by way of its involvement in the International Business Chambers of Cambodia. In its own way, Tata International has also introduced English language tutorials for its expanding workforce to ensure they are ready to take on newer challenges in the fastest evolving region of the world.

About Tata International H.E. Mr. Dinesh K. Patnaik, Ambassador of India to Cambodia, on the inauguration of TIL in Cambodia

Phnom Penh, Kingdom of Cambodia, February 2015 After months of research and grasping local nuances, Tata International, the global trading and distribution company of the Tata group, officially set foot in Cambodia in February 2013 with the intent to contribute towards enhancing living standards of Cambodians by way of agricultural mechanization, through the introduction of technologically advanced automotive machinery and by involving citizens in partnering for growth. Being one of the fastest growing economies in the Indo China region, the Kingdom was a natural choice for expansion for Tata International, which has a global footprint through subsidiaries and offices across 39 countries. In just under two years, assisted by investments of over $250k, Tata International has expanded its reach from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap and Battambang, the predominant commercial hubs of the Kingdom. With already over 125 satisfied customers, Tata International’s offering spans Farm Machinery (Tractors from Escorts India and Power Tillers & Pumpsets Greaves Cotton) to the recently introduced, and currently under pilot tests, Commercial Vehicles from Tata Motors.

Tata International Limited [TIL], is the global trading and distribution company of the Tata group. Established in 1962, TIL’s key business verticals are metals trading, distribution, minerals trading, leather and leather products, and agri trading with a presence in manufacturing and supply chain integration in select businesses. The company operates through its network of offices and subsidiaries across 39 countries, spanning Africa, Europe, Middle East, Latin America and Asia and has spearheaded forays into new geographies for the group. Besides, TIL has been a forerunner of the Indian industry in Africa. Over the years, TIL has formed strong strategic alliances and partnerships that have reinforced its role in international trade and business. With a turnover of USD 1.7 billion (2013-14), the company is supported by about 10000 strong employee base. The company is deeply committed to being a proactive and responsible member of the community and the environment in which it operates. Stringent goals for the reduction of our carbon footprint and greenhouse gases in the leather plant and other facilities, coupled with initiatives for empowering local communities in equal measure, drives the company's long term sustainability agenda. Winner of several prestigious national awards and International certifications for Environment and Quality, it is also a signatory to the UN Global Compact. TATA International

Cultural Connection Through Temple Iconography When I see the beautiful temples in Cambodia, Thai- figure with shrivelled breasts at the feet of Shiva in land, Vietnam and Indonesia, (the ones that I have sculptures. visited to date), I am mesmerised by their similarities to the Indian temples… Karaikkal Ammaiyar -6th century AD A person well acquainted with Indian Temples might feel a strong connection between the yesteryear temples of these countries in South East Asia, which are not in worship today and the temples of India that are still in worship. The temples, with their classic architecture of these countries, bear a striking resemblance to temples in various parts of India. This article tries to trace the connection between Cambodia and Tamilnadu, through analysis of their iconography.

Iconography definition:

Symbolic representation, especially the conventional meanings attached to an image or images. (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ iconography) The figure depicted in this image is ‘Karaikkal Ammaiyar’ a pioneer Tamil Saint who lived in the 6th century Tamilnadu, South India. The study of Karaikkal Ammaiyar and Cambodian Temples is important as she is found sculpted in a few temples along with Dancing Shiva/Nataraja in temples of Cambodia. It is also necessary to mention that she was not a mythological character but a historic person, who is one among the 63 Saiva Saints called ‘Nayanmars’ (ardent devotees of Lord Shiva). For further historic and literary details of Nayanmars and Karaikkal Ammaiyar, one can refer to 'Periya Puranam'. She can be recognized as an emaciated/skeletal

legend in Phnom Penh Museum

Ammaiyar means ‘Revered Mother’ in Tamil Language. Karaikkal is a town in today’s Puducherry State of Southern India. The lady originally named Punithavathy, took up devotion within her cult and gave her life towards the worship of Lord Shiva. She is hailed as the ‘Revered Mother of Karaikkal’ or ‘Karaikkal Ammaiyar’ in Tamil Literature. Karaikkal Ammaiyar holds a very special place in Tamil Bhakti Movement. She was the earliest of the 63 Nayanmars (Saivite Saints) and also one of the pioneer saints of the Indian Bhakti Movement – which was formed to curb the influences of Jainism and Buddhism. The sculpture of this Saint in Ghost/ Demonic Form – ‘Peyuru’ in Tamil, can be found in a few temples in Cambodia. This certainly is one example of the glaring evidence of an Indian cultural connection.

Karaikkal Ammaiyar in Tamilnadu. On the right side is the image of Dancing Shiva in 11th century Gangai Konda Cholapuram Temple and sitting below him is Karaikkal Ammaiyar. The temple was built by Rajendra Cholan, son of Rajaraja Cholan who built the Brihadeeswara Temple in Thanjavur, Tamilnadu. The Government of India in November 2014, conducted the Commomeration Celebrations of 1000th Anniversary of the Coronation of King Rajendra Cholan, who had one of the best Naval Fleets and expanded his empire across the seas to South East Asia. He is also hailed for having maintained friendly relationships with other Kingdoms of the region.

This is exactly the form of her portrayal in sculptures in Tamilnadu and other South East Asian countries. To understand the connection of Karaikkal Ammaiyar sculptures in Cambodia, one also needs to see one of the best sculptures of Dancing Shiva with

She is addressed by scholars and researchers in many ways. Apart from Karaikkal Ammaiyar, she is also called ‘Siva’s Demon Devotee’, ‘Karaikkal Pei’ – meaning ‘Ghost of Karaikkal’ in Tamil due to her looks and ‘Peyar’ – the Revered Ghost. Giving least importance to beauty and worldly pleasures, she wished and prayed for the demonic form and her wish was granted by Shiva. She composed Thiuvirattai Manimalai, Arputha Thiruvanthathi and Thiruvalankaatu Mootha Thiruppathigangal. Peter J.J. de Bruin, in his book ‘Karaikkalammaiyar: An iconographical and textual study’ throws a new light on Ammaiyar in Cambodia. The book specifies the places in Tamilnadu and places in other countries where Ammaiyar can be seen. Three temples in Tamilnadu – Sembiyan Mahadevi Village – Kailasanathasvamin Temple Thanjavur – Rajarajeswara Temple Gangai Konda Chozhapuram – Brihadeeswara Temple. Three bronze sculptures in Srilanka – Polannaruva – Siva Devele Colombo Museum Polannaruva – Siva Devele.

Phnom Chisor, Angkor Wat and Sculpture at Phnom Penh Museum. Among the six places mentioned in Bruin's book, I was unable to locate Ammaiyar in Angkor Wat or Vat Ek. After a brief field visit, these were the list of temples and museums where Karaikkal Ammaiyar could be found in Cambodia 1. Banteay Srei 2. Vat Baset 3. Phnom Chissor 4. Prasat Preah Vihear 5. Phnom Penh Museum 6. Battambang Museum Apart from the above list by Peter J.J.de Bruin, the author could find Karaikkal Ammaiyar in a few more places in Cambodia, namely 1. Prasat Preah Vihear 2. Battambang Museum There are also a few more temples in Tamilnadu where Karaikkal Ammaiyar can be found sculpted.

How did Ammaiyar from Karaikkal in present day Puducherry, under the then Pallava Empire visit Cambodia through her sculptures? Who transported her? How could this be a transportation of temple architecture alone? Indeed, many researchers feel that this is more than simply a transportation of architecture, but also demonstrates ties in culture and linguistics. It is indeed a very interesting topic of research and one that certainly needs more in-depth analysis. I hereby register my true awe and admiration towards all Indian kingdoms, Indian merchants and skillful sea farers who, without the assistance of the technological advancements of today, tried making this vast globe into a small world of connected kingdoms through their maritime expertise.

India & Japan Partners for common development

The friendship between India and Japan has a long history rooted in spiritual affinity and strong cultural and civilizational ties. Over the years, the two countries have built upon these values and created a partnership based on both principle and pragmatism. Today, India is the largest democracy in Asia, and Japan the most prosperous. Indiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earliest documented direct contact with Japan was with the Todaiji Temple in Nara, where the consecration or eye-opening of the towering statue of Lord Buddha was performed by an Indian monk, Bodhisena, in 752 AD. Among other Indians closely associated with Japan were the Hindu leader Swami Vivekananda, Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore, entrepreneur JRD Tata, freedom fighter Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and Judge Radha Binod Pal. The Japan-India Association was set up in 1903, and is today the oldest international friendship body in Japan. Throughout the various phases of history since civilizational contacts between India and Japan began

India & Japan

some 1400 years ago, the two countries have never been adversaries. The beginning of the 21st Century witnessed a dramatic transformation in bilateral ties. Guided by the strategic vision of Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori, the leadership of the two countries, cutting across party lines, recognised the merit of substantive bilateral engagement. Recognition of the mutual advantage in enhancing and widening the ambit of the bilateral relationship has driven India-Japan ties in the past decade and a half. During the recent official visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Japan from 30 August - 3 September 2014, two Prime Ministers decided to create a relationship that will shape the course of their countries and the character of this region and the world in this century.

India & The Great War

\NÐanigs®gÁamd¾Gs©arü

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them.” Excerpts from For the Fallen Laurance Binyon (1869-1943) A Centenary Commemoration

India & The Great War

Courtesy http://www.cwgc.org/

The First World War (1914-1918) was a watershed event in modern world history. India contributed immensely to the war effort in terms of both men and material. ► Indian soldiers served with credit and honour in numerous battlefields around the globe in-France and Belgium, in Aden, Arabia, East Africa, Gallipoli, Egypt, Mesopotamia, Palestine, Persia, Salonica, Russia, and even in China. ► A total of 1.1 million Indians served overseas in the war and 60,000 died. ► Indians earned over 9,200 decorations for gallantry including 11 Victoria Crosses. ► To mark the occasion and highlight the pivotal role of India in the war, the USI Centre for Armed Forces Historical Research (CAFHR) in cooperation with the Ministry of External Affairs has drawn up a plan to use the Centenary commemoration of the Great War as a medium to emphasise the sterling contribution made by the Indian Army towards the establishment of world peace. Major categories of events and programmes being planned include:

India & The Great War

► Ceremonial participation by the representatives of the Indian armed forces in events organized overseas including in Turkey, France, Belgium and UK (there are pending proposals for events in New Zealand and Australia) ► Commemoration activities, including exhibitions in India, in collaboration with the USI and Army Headquarters. ► MEA sponsored films, publications (including the latest coffee table book “The Last Post”) and special projects, and proposed events planned and built around them. ► Association with and participation in International seminars and conference (by MEA and USI), both in India and overseas. ► Activities by the Indian Missions overseas to highlight and project the sacrifice of Indian soldiers in the First World War.

Druzhba-Dosti

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, with President of Russian Federation, H.E. Mr. Vladimir Putin, in New Delhi on 11 Dec 2014

President of the Russian Federation, H.E. Mr. Vladimir Putin paid an official visit to India on December 10th & 11th for the 15th India- Russia Annual Summit. The India-Russia Annual Summit process was initiated under President Putinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leadership during his visit to India in October, 2000. It has proved a highly effective mechanism for both countries to take high-level stock of India-Russia relations and to impart direction and impetus to them. The last Summit was held in Moscow in October, 2013. The 15th India- Russia Annual Summit was the first Annual Summit meeting between the President Putin and Prime Minister Modi. The two leaders had already met first on the sidelines of the BRICS Summit in Brazil in July 2014 and later on the sidelines of the East Asia Summit in Myanmar on November 13th and in Australia for the G20 Summit on November 15th -16th. Russia is a long-standing and a steadfast partner for

India. Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi considers Indiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relation with Russia, a major foreign policy priority. Bilateral economic, commercial and investment ties between India and Russia have been growing but are way below potential. Bilateral trade in 2013 stood at about US $ 10 billion and is projected to have stayed at the same level in 2014. Strenuous efforts are being made to create conducive conditions for strengthening our economic links through trade & investment. There has also been a substantial increase in tourism between the two countries in recent years. The recently announced e-visa facility has also been extended to Russian nationals and this expected to boost tourist arrivals further. Russia is also amongst Indiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most important interlocutors on regional, international and multilateral issues. The two countries work closely together in international fora, at the United Nations and other groupings such as the G20, BRICS, EAS and Russia-India-China (RIC). India shares a similarity of views similarity of views with Russia on important global issues Druzhba-Dosti

including on threats from terrorism, particularly in our shared neighbourhood, on multi-polarity as an important element in the global architecture and the need to defuse the cold war like tensions that are increasingly manifesting themselves in global relations. India has also said clearly that it cannot be party to any sanctions against Russia.

Arctic and have agreed to facilitate scientific cooperation to study the challenges (like melting ice, climate change, marine life and biodiversity), facing the rapidly changing Arctic region.

During the Summit, the leaders agreed on a vision for strengthening the India-Russia partnership over the next decade. Recognizing that the special and privileged strategic partnership between India and Russia has been built on the strong foundation of mutual trust, bilateral understanding and unique people-to-people affinities, the leaders emphasized that the time has come for a significant broad-basing of bilateral cooperation to carry the friendship between the countries to a qualitatively new level. The salient points are set out below:

Expanded economic engagement

Energy

•The bilateral program ‘on enhanced cooperation in oil and gas sphere’ underlines the serious commitments of the two sides to develop cooperation in this area of great promise. •The two countries will promote natural gas utilization as an abundant and environmentally friendly source of energy for diverse purposes in their economies and will study the possibilities of building a hydrocarbon pipeline system, connecting the Russian Federation with India. •India agreed to expeditiously identify a second site, in addition to Kudankulam, for the construction of the Russian-designed nuclear power units in India towards expanding cooperation in uranium mining, fabrication and supply of nuclear fuel, management of spent fuel and in other aspects of the nuclear fuel cycle.

DEVELOPMENT TRACKER

India to Head BRICS' US$ 100 Billion Development Bank US$ 100 billion currency reserve pool also set up by partner countries A US$ 100 Billion development bank and a currency reserve pool were launched by leaders of BRICS’ emerging market nations, marking the first concrete step toward reshaping the Western-dominated international financial system. For the first five years, India will preside over the bank's operations, followed by Brazil and then Russia, leaders of the five-country group announced at a summit. The bank based in Shanghai is aimed at funding infrastructure projects in developing nations. "The agreement towards setting up the BRICS’ New Development Bank is a significant step. I am happy the initiative announced in 2012 in Delhi has become a reality," Prime Minister Narendra

Modi said. They also set up a US$ 100 billion currency reserve pool to help countries forestall short-term liquidity pressures. The bank is the first major achievement of the BRICS’ countries- Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa- since they got together in 2009 to press for a bigger say in the global financial order.

TOURISM TRACKER

India in Top 5 Medical Tourism Hotspots List INDIA is one of the top five medical tourist destinations in the world. It has hosted nearly 166,000 medical tourists from across the globe in 2012, said a PHD Chamber's Medical and Wellness Tourism Report released recently. The report forecasts that the medical tourism industry will reach US$ 6 billion by 2018 and credits the presence of highly skilled doctors coupled with improvement in medical infrastructure among the reasons behind India's rising attractiveness in the medical tourism market. To further promote India's native advantages, the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare is trying to engage international agencies for the promotion of alternative and traditional medicines. The government is trying to promote traditional medicinal practices like Ayurveda and yoga around the world with the help of WHO. India Now Business and Economy www.ibef.org | June-July 2014

Mussoorie queen of hills

PñMRBHmhakSRtiyanI KµanCemøaH

Riverside Rendezvous: Sursindhar & Jayalgarh offer great opportunities for camping, river walks, bonfires and singing and dancing by the dying embers till dawn. What makes Mussoorie the queen of hills? For one, it boasts of Cloud's End at one end of it, and for another, it promises a mesmerising view of the majestic Himalayan ranges. An easy and picturesque 35 km drive from Dehradun, it is situated at the foothills of the Himalayas, at a height of 200m above sea level.

The best time to visit

It is easily March-June and September-November. In summer, this hill station provides an escape from the oppressive heat of the plains. With the highest temperature reaching 30 degrees Celsius and the lowest hovering at 10 degrees Celsius, summers are also the best time for trekking, rock climbing and camping.

Getting there

Dehradun makes for a great base camp to do this loop and is well connected by air, train and bus from key cities of North India. Cabs are the easiest way to travel.

Where to stay

Mussorie offers a wide choice of accommodation for travellers travellers-from budget to five star hotels. Take your pick after a thorough recce and select one with valley facing room for the best view of Mussoorie. Try out the variety of cuisine on offer. Once settled, opt for a horse ride or just take a walk to enjoy the scenic vista. Sit on one of the benches and soak in pure oxygen.

Indulge

Colourful woollens like Kullu socks, caps, mufflers and shawls make great items for friends back home. The Tibetan market offers a choice of sleeping bags, windcheaters, sweaters and shawls and a little further at the old cantonment area of Landour you can shop for Raj era memorabilia, silver jewellery and books.

Mahabharata CHAPTER 16 Mahabharata, ( Sanskrit: “Great Epic of the Bharata Dynasty”) one of the two Sanskrit epic poems of ancient India. This story narration between 400 BCE and 200 CE is regarded as text about dharma (Hindu moral law) and a history (itihasa, literally “that’s what happened”).

1► Having restored all the Brahmana’s cows, Arjuna returned to the court, offering respects to Yudhishthira, he said, “Brother Dear ! I’m guilty of violating the code of conduct agreed upon by us on the advice of Sage Narada. So, I seek your permission to go into exile for twelve years.” 2► “I haven't followed, Arjuna, what you said,” remarked the king. 3► “I entered the bed-chamber when I shouldn't have, replied Arjuna. “What for ?” asked Yudhishthira.” 4► “To get my bow and arrows to punish the thieves and restore the thieved cows of a Brahmana,” explained Arjuna. 5► “Then you have committed no violation at all. It would have been a violation, if you had entered the chamber for any personal end. You have performed my duty, in fact, as protection of the people is the king's duty. So, take it easy as I and Draupadi have no objection at all,” said the king.

But Arjuna said respectfully, "Brother Dear ! it is your love for me that does not allow you to object to what I did. I hold myself guilty and so I must suffer the penalty." 6► Arjuna's answer made Yudhishthira answer less and he had to allow him to go into exile. Many of his admirers also accompanied him to the forest. 7► Journeying through thick forests and crossing several shrines, Arjuna came to Gangadwar (Haridwar) along with his companions. The party camped there and Arjuna began passing his days in meditation and religious discourses. He spent most of his time In the company of scholarly saints and Brahmanas. Off and on, he performed yajnas also to propitiate gods. 8► Arjuna was thus passing his time in peace and satisfaction. He had no tension either and was also gaining wisdom as well as virtue. This made him put on an exceptional glow on his face. 9► Things went on smoothly for quite some time. But one day a strange thing happened.

10► Arjuna was busy performing a yajna, when an extremely beautiful damsel happened to come there. Seeing Arjuna's glowing face, muscular body and manly grace, she lost her heart to him.

ARJUNA WEDS ULUPI.

11► This damsel was Ulupi, daughter of the Naga King who had his kingdom in the underworld (Patala). The next day, when Arjuna went into the river for his usual bath, Ulupi caught hold of his leg and dragged him to the underworld. Thus, Arjuna reached the palace of the Naga King, Kauravya by name. 12► Arjuna was non-plussed to find himself in the land of the Nagas. He asked Ulupi, "Who are you and why have you brought me here forcibly?" 13► Offering a dish full of fruit, Ulupi replied, "I am Ulupi, daughter of the Naga king. You are in the land of the Nagas. I am still a virgin and want to wed you. You cannot go from here unless you accept my proposal." 14► Arjuna, finding no alternative had to agree and both of them revelled merrily after having been duly married. Arjuna then wanted to come back and Ulupi brought him to Haridwar. Before leaving him, she conferred a boon on him, “Henceforward, you will be treated by all water-creatures as a friend. So, you will

be ever invincible in water.” In due course, Ulupi bore a son that came to be named Iravan. 15► Arjuna came back to his companions and told them all that had happened. Then he asked them to go back to Hastinapur leaving him alone. He then journeyed towards the east for Months together-visiting all the holy places that fell on the way. Finally, he reached Manipur and went to the court of the local King-Chitravahana. Having known Arjuna’s identity, the king accorded him a warm welcome.

ARJUNA WEDS CHITRANGADA.

16► While staying in the royal palace, Arjuna chanced to see princess Chitrangada. Smitten by her bewitching charm, he lost his heart to her. 17► The king had no son and Chitrangada was his only daughter. He wanted his daughter’s son to be his heir to the throne. When Arjuna expressed his desire to marry her, the king placed the condition before him. Arjuna agreed that Chitrangada's son could be adopted by him as his son to continue his dynasty. 18► Arjuna stayed at Manipur for about three years and the princess gave birth to a son who was named Babhruvahana. Then the great Pandava advanced further on his journey leaving Chitrangada with her father.
