Sudakshina (Sanskrit: सुदक्षिण, romanized: Sudakṣiṇa) is a king of the Kamboja (caste) featured in the Hindu epic Mahabharata.
[1] On the 14th day of the Kurukshetra War, Arjuna, with his charioteer Krishna, attempts to reach Jayadratha.
Drona and Duryodhana arrange warriors in Arjuna's path, trying to impede his progress until sunset.
Sudakshina rallies a fleeing Kaurava akshauhini, challenging Arjuna.
However, Arjuna quickly recovers and angrily invokes the Indrastra, which multiplies into many arrows and decimates the Kaurava forces.
