As a Kalyani Chalukya vassal, he participated in prince Vikramaditya VI's campaigns, and consolidated the Kakatiya control over the area around Anumakonda by subjugating local chiefs.
[2] Much of the information about Prola I's military career comes from the 1097–1098 CE Kazipet inscription issued by his grandson Durga-raja.
[8] In addition to the traditional garuda symbol of the Kakatiya family, Prola seems to have adopted varaha insignia, which was a royal emblem of their new overlords, the Chalukyas of Kalyani.
[2] The rise in status credited to Prola I probably refers to him obtaining the Anumakonda vishaya and its neighbouring lands as a hereditary fief from the Chalukya king.
[2][1] Prola I commissioned an irrigation tank called Kesari-tataka or Jagati-kesari, named after his title (biruda) Kesari.
