Narasimha I

Narasimha I

Narasimha I (Kannada: ಒಂದನೆ ನರಸಿಂಹ) (1152–1173 CE) was a ruler of the Hoysala Empire. Apart from his victory over his overlord Chalukya Tailapa III which paved way for declaration of independence by his successor, his importance to historians is considered little.

Tailapa III was killed by Narasimha I. He however failed to meet the challenge of their Kalachuri feudatory Bijjala II. He was overthrown by his son Veera Ballala II.
