Sanjar Khan was fighting the ‘Uriah leader of Telingana’, who had ‘nearly two hundred thousand elephants’. This could be none other than the Gajapati king, and the way in which he is referred to shows that he was the ruler of the neighbouring kingdom.
Firishta says that the motive that led the Gajapati king to help the Raja of Devarakonda was the temptation of the ‘offers of great sums of money’ by the Raja of Devarakonda.
1460 AD: Gajapati Kapileswara of Orissa
2nd February, 1460 A.D : conquest of Warangal Fort by Kapilesvara's son Hambira or Ambira and Raghudeva was the second in command. It is interesting to note that Hambira`s inscription is found on the eastern gate of the Warangal fort while Raghudeva`s record is incised on its western gate, locally known as the fifth gate. This appears to show that the two leaders of the Gajapati forces led the attack on the Warangal fort from two different sides.

This land is stated to have been situated in the western tract of the Andhra country which formed a part of
Bharatavarsha lying in the Jambudvipa section of the earth. This is in consonance with the old conception according to which Jambu-dvipa was one of the four or seven dripas constituting the earth.
Bharatavarsha lying in the Jambudvipa section of the earth. This is in consonance with the old conception according to which Jambu-dvipa was one of the four or seven dripas constituting the earth.
The inscription is important as it confirms the statement of Firishta that the Gajapati king intervened in the political affairs of Telingana to the detriment of the interests of the Bahmani kingdom. Firishta states that when the Bahmani forces besieged Devarakonda, the Gajapati king sent some forces to help the ruler of Devarakonda. It was probably this same expeditionary force that marched to Warangal after relieving Devarakonda, and under the command of Ambira-deva succeeded in capturing the Warangal fort. The name of the fort, Varumgallu, is interesting as a development from Orugallu.
