Narendradeva (Nepali: नरेन्द्रदेव) was a Thakuri king of Nepal who reigned from c. 1140–1147.[1][2][3][4]

Life

[edit]

Narendradeva was a brother of Indradeva. Indradeva had ruled from c. 1126 instead of the then heir apparent, Mahendradeva, a son of Simhadeva. Narendradeva started as a governor of Bhadgaon during the reign of Indradeva. He kept that position until Indradeva's son Manadeva died. Manadeva had no children and Narendradeva succeeded his nephew as the king.[5][6]

Narendradeva did not have any legitimate heirs and was succeeded by Aanandadeva, a son of Simhadeva, in 1147.[7][8]
