INSCRIPTIONS OF THE CHANDELLAS OF JEJAKABHUKTI

_______________________
1 Sandhi is not made here. The reading of the five aksharas following the name is clear; they were
read by Kielhorn as praka[ṭākshata], but they give no suitable sense.
2 Only the mātrā of this akshara now survives. Similarly the first two aksharas of the next line have
also peeled off completely and they have been restored here from Kielhorn’s reading. This shows
that the stone was in a better condition when Cunningham took the impression.
3 This is yābhyāṁ, which would not suit the metre. The first and the third letters are not distinct.
4 The consonant of the bracketed akshara has now peeled off.
5 Sandhi is now made here.
