Indra III
Indra III (914–929 CE) was the grandson of Rashtrakuta Krishna II and son of Chedi princess Lakshmi. He became the ruler of the empire due to the early demise of his father Jagattunga.〔From the Sangli, Karhad, Deoli and Bagumra inscriptions (Kamath (2001), p80)〕 He had many titles such as ''Nithyavarsha'', ''Rattakandarapa'', ''Rajamarathanda'' and ''Kirthinarayana''. He patronised Kannada poet and commander SriVijaya and Sanskrit poet Trivikrama. Indra III was married to princess Vijamba of the Kalachuri dynasty of central India (Chedi).
==Capture of Kannauj==
Immediately after coming to power, Indra III had to fight a Paramara ruler, a feudatory of Gurjara Prathihara and routed him out of Govardhana near Nasik. Thereafter the Paramaras became feudatories of the Rashtrakutas.〔Kamath (2001), p80〕 The Gurjara Pratihara ruler Mahendrapala I was experiencing some family feuds and this gave Indra III an opportunity to attack Kannauj in the Ganges - Yamuna doab.〔From the Cambay plates (Kamath 2001, p80)〕 Kannauj at this time was under the control of the Pratihara empire. From the writings of Kannada poet Adikavi Pampa it is known that Indra III sent his feudatory, Chalukya King Narasimha of Vemulavada (Andhra region) in pursuit of Mahipala I the incumbent ruler who fled the area.〔From the notes of Adikavi Pampa; "Mahipala fled as if struck by lightning" and "Chalukya Narasimha bathed his horses in the Ganges river" (Kamath, 2001, p81)〕〔From the copper plate grant of his son Govinda IV (Reu1933, p78)〕 Kannauj was "completely destroyed", and the Pratihara ruler weakened.〔Sen, S.N., (2013), p21, A Textbook of Medieval Indian History, Delhi: Primus Books, ISBN 9789380607344〕 The northern campaign of Indra III produced more dramatic results then during the rule of Dhruva Dharavarsha and Govinda III as the Rashtrakutas were actually able to hold Kannauj until c.916.〔A.S. Altekar in Kamath 2001, p80〕
