PRITHVI VALLABH
(or THE STORY OF MUNJA AND MRINALVATI)
Munja, popularyl known as Prithvi Vallabh, ruled Malva (modern Madhya Pradesh) and large parts of Gujarat from A. D. 974 to 997. Accounts of his story are to be found in the few verses available today, of a poem, MUNJARASA, in Gujarati. Munia was a great ruler. An able statesman, scholar and poet of considerable repute, he was brave, handsome and noble, with an infinite capacity to enjoy life. He was loved by his subjects. This is the story of his ill-fated romance with the stern and austere Princess Mrinalvati, sister of the King of Telengana.
