Vajradatta

He is the son and successor of King Bhagadatta, and the third ruler of the Naraka dynasty of the Pragjyotisha Kingdom.

Vajradatta is regarded to have studied the four Vedas along with the disciplines called the Angas, as well as the Nitishastras of Brihaspati and Shukra.

[citation needed] The Ashvamedha Parva of the Mahabharata offers an account of Vajradatta.

[3] When King Yudhishthira performed his ashvamedha yajna to achieve imperial sovereignty, his brother Arjuna was appointed as the guard of the ceremonial horse.

Vajradatta made an attempt to hold the horse to avenge his father's humiliation in the war at the hands of Arjuna.
