Parikshitnarayana
After the death of Raghu Deva ,his son Parikshit succeeded the eastern kingdom ,and a few rare tankas are known. His region was very turbulent one, mainly spent fighting the Mughal force ,supported on to a limited extent by laxminarayana. He finally submitted to mughal in AD 1613 and it was agreed that he would be released and his territory restored to him on payment of war indemnity of 7,00,000 tankas. However he was apparently unable to pay and died in obscurity in AD 1618.
