[2] Navaghana was middle aged when he succeeded his father Mandalika I.
He is mentioned in the genealogy in inscriptions at Neminath Temple (c. VS 1510 or 1454 CE) on Girnar where he is praised as a mighty warrior.
This inscription describes the Chudasamas as being of Yadava origin.
He probably died in a local conflict with Muslims in 1308 CE.
He was succeeded by his younger brother (although the Girnar inscription says his "son"), Mahipala I.
