Puranic Encyclopaedia  | English  English
GĀNDHĀRA   A stretch of land of ancient Bhārata. It is believed that this land stretched from the shores of river Sindhu to Kābul. Subala was a mighty ruler of this country. His daughter Gāndhārī was the wife of Dhṛtarāṣṭra. [Śloka 11, Chapter 111, Ādi Parva] . Agni Purāṇa points out a relationship between the Gāndhāras and the Drāviḍas. Descending in order from Viṣṇu were Candra--Budha--Purūravas--Āyus--Nahuṣa -Yayāti--Turvasu. In order from Turvasu were Varga-- Gobhānu--Traiśāni-- Karandhama--Marutta--Duṣyanta-- Varūtha--Gāṇḍīra--Gāndhāra. From Gāndhāra arose the five different provincialists: Gāndhāras, Keralas, Colas, Pāṇḍyas and Kolas. [Chapter 277, Agni Purāṇa] .
