"Rukmangada, who had ascended the throne after Bhadrayu's death, was admittedly a religious man. The news that Ayodhye had vanquished both Kashi and Shravasthi at the same time was a bitter one for him...Just then Rukmangada was engaged to be married. His bride was king Panchala’s elder daughter. Queen Keshini hoped that through this liaison her younger brother would become the king of Ahichchatra and the prince of Panchala and would go on to found the Kurupanchala empire."
