Dushala (Sanskrit: दुश्शला, romanized: Duśśalā), sometimes spelled as Duhshala, was the princess of Hastinapura, and the only daughter of King Dhritarashtra and Queen Gandhari in the Hindu epic Mahabharata.

Being the only princess of the most mighty Empire, she was very much loved by all the members of the royal family, particularly her elder brother, Duryodhana.

Later, Jayadratha played a vital role in getting Abhimanyu, the son of Arjuna, killed in the Kurukhsetra war to satiate his vengeance.

[4] Later, during the Ashvamedha sacrifice, the horse of the Pandavas came to Sindhu, which was then ruled by Suratha, the son of Dushala.

Dushala came to the battlefield, wailing with the infant son of Suratha, which shattered Arjuna with sorrow.
