He ascended the throne as a child, and his mother Naiki Devi acted as the regent during his short reign.
[2] The Chandela-era Garra inscription mentions that a Chandela warrior named Rauta Pape lost his life in a battle at Kakaḍādaha.
Taking advantage of this, the Paramara king Vindhyavarman made attempts to regain control of Malwa.
After his victory, Kumara destroyed Vindhyavarman's town Gogasthana, sank a well where the Paramara palace once stood, and plundered Malwa.
Someshvara states that Kumara also served as a military commander, and repulsed an invasion by the Paramara king Vindhyavarman.
He obtained a great amount of wealth from the Paramara kingdom of Malava, and donated it at Gaya during a shraddha ceremony.
