senāpati of Mahinda IV and of Sena V. He was sent to Nāgadīpa, where he subdued the Vallabha king. Once, when he was absent, Sena V had the senāpati’s younger brother, Mahāmalla, slain for an offence with the queen mother, and appointed a court official Udaya as senāpati. When Sena senāpati heard of this, he marched against the king, who had to flee to Rohaṇa. The queen mother joined Sena, and he lived in Pulatthipura. This king, later, dismissed senāpati Udaya and made peace with Sena, whose daughter he married. Cv.liv.13 f; lviii.70.
