Daughter of Kandarpadharma
The daughter of Kandarpadharma (fl. 653), whose name is unknown, was the queen regnant of Champa in ?–653.
She was the daughter of king Kandarpadharma and the sister of king Prabhasadharma.
According to New Book of Tang, when Bhadresvaravarman was deposed, the daughter of Kandarpadharma became queen regnant by ministers of Champa. However, the female monarch could not stabilize the country. So the ministers brought Vikrantavarman I to Champa and made him new king. When Vikrantavarman I ascended the throne of Champa, she went from queen regnant to his queen consort.
In New Book of Tang, her name is unknown, and she is just called the daughter of Kandarpadharma.
