Yaduraya Wodeyar

Adi Yaduraya (later, Vijaya Raja Wodeyar; 1371–1423) was the first raja of Mysore from 1399 until his death in October 1423.[1][2] The Vijayanagara emperor Harihara II installed Yaduraya as his vassal and as a dedicated ruler of Mysore principality in 1399 to suppress the opposition of the Dalvoys. The Dalvoys were a decommissioned clan of royal fighters, advisers, and ministers who were active in the Vijayanagara Empire before, during, and after Harihara II and Yaduraya.
