Uladana is the name of a city mentioned in the “Semrā copper-plate grant of Paramardideva” (1162 A.C). Uladana has been identified with Ooldana-khurd, about 12 kms. north-east of Madanapur but a place more appropriately falling in the viṣaya in which it is stated to have been then included, is Uldan (24 ̊ 00’ N. : 78’ 45 E.). situated about 15 kms. south by east of Baṇḍā, the headquarters of a tehsīl in the Sāgar District. This place is on the junction of the rivers Dhasan and Bhander and a legend is associated with it.

These plates (mentioning Uladana) were found at Semrā: a town in the Chatarpur District of the Bundelkhand region (formerly the state of Bijāwar) of Madhya Pradesh. They were issued by Paramardideva to record the confirmation of a grant, from his camp at Sonasara, for the sake of the increase of his own and his parent’s merit and fame.
