Yaduraya Wodeyar

Vijaya Raja Wodeyar (Adi Yaduraya; 20 January 1371 – October 1423), also known as Yaduraya Wodeyar, was the first raja of Mysore from 1399 until his death in October 1423.^[2][3] 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 Dalavays. The Dalavays 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.^{[citation needed]}
