who was the founder of panwar dynasty in garhwal
Garhwal Kingdom
Based on the testimony of inscriptions ( the earliest dating back to the 4th century AD ) , literary accounts , and local traditions it may be suggested that Far Western Nepal and Uttarakhand formed one single polity for centuries under the Katyūrī dynasty . Therefore , both regions inherit a shared past or collective memory . The Bhārata / Jāgara of Maulā alias Jiyā Rānī , a Katyūrī princess , as narrated in Doti ( Far Western Nepal ) and Uttarakhand ( India ) is an example of this common heritage . ( http://himalaya.socanth.cam.ac.uk/collections/journals/ebhr/pdf/EBHR_44_01.pdf ) . Professor Giuseppe Tucci , Italian Research Scholar has researched in the history of Nepal . He came to conclusion that the Khasa Empire of Western Nepal in 12th Century had extended upto Gunge and Purang states upto Laddakh in the west , whereas towards 13th century the Empire reached its climax by annexing the western part of Nepal ( i.e Karnali and Gandaki Region ) . During the time of Khas Emperor Krachalla in BS 1280 Kumaon was annexed to Khasa Empire and his son Askhok Challa annexed Garhwal and had erected victory pillar in Gopeshwor , Garhwal . Not only this but for about fifty years ( BS 1344 - 91 ) Kathmandu Valley was also subjugated to Khasa Empire ( Prof. Surya Mani Adhikari , History of Khasa Empire ) .
