Provenance:During the reign of Nara Narayan, from 1581, Raghu Deva had governed the eastern part of the kingdom as his vassal. Once Lakshmi Narayan had succeeded to the throne, Ragu Deva declared his full independence and struck coins dated Sk 1510 (AD 1588). He was opposed to Lakshmi Narayan`s submissive policy towards the Mughals and, as a result, had to contend with various Mughal campaigns to bring him to heel.
