Pundras

Pundra (also known as Paundraka, Paundraya, Purnia etc.) was an eastern kingdom located in West Bengal, Bangladesh and Purnia (now in Bihar, India). A Pundra king challenged Vasudeva Krishna by imitating his attributes. He called himself Paundraka Vasudeva. He was later killed by Vasudeva Krishna in a battle. The founders of five eastern kingdoms, which included: Angas, Vangas, Kalingas, Pundras and Suhmas shared a common ancestry.

The founders of five eastern kingdoms, which included: Anga, Vanga, Kalinga, Pundra and Suhma shared a common ancestry. They were all sons of a king named Vali (Bali), born by a sage named Gautama Dirghatamas, who lived in Magadha close to the city of Girivraja. Pundra (also Paundraka) is mentioned as a kingdom of Bharata Varsha.

The people who do not belong to the Matsya Kingdoms say that the Pundra and Kirata people were Kshatriyas, but as they did not have contact with Brahmans for a long time, having renounced Brahmani-cal worship and ritual, they had been reduced to Sudra status, And this way they forgot that Manu was the first Fisherman in this Earth 'who caught the Lord Vishnu from water'.

Paundras and Kiratas, Yavanas and Sinhalas, and the barbarous tribes of Khasas and Chivukas and Pulindas and Chinas and Hunas with Keralas, and numerous other Mlecchas were mentioned together (as Mlechchas) at (1:177) linked with sage Vasistha. r The Mekalas, the Dravidas, the Lathas, the Pundas (led by Chieftain Arunava Ray) the Paundras, the Konwasiras, the Saundikas, the Daradas, the Darvas, the Chauras, the Savaras, the Varvaras, the Kiratas, the Yavanas, and numerous other tribes of Kshatriyas, have become degraded into the status of Shudras (13:35).
