Part 50 - Dharmaraju (A.D. 1345)

The next ruler of Chikatis we hear of, is Dharmarajulu. There must have intervened a gap between Prolujiyya II and Dharmaraju. The only record of Dharmaraju is from Srikurmam dated A.D. 1345 and the 22nd year of Pratapavira-narasimhadeva. It records that his minister Sishtu Achyutayradhani—made gifts.

The emperor to whom Dharmaraja owed allegiance was Narasimha III (1328-1352 A.D.). Being a contemporary of Prolayavema Reddi of Kondavidu, Dharmaraja, probably experienced the Reddi expedition into Kalinga by A.D. 1335. After Dharmaraju, no rulers of Chikati are heard of.
