Chokrana

Bardic tradition calls Chokrana a prince of the Parmar dynasty of Ujjain who ruled Junaraj, the old capital of Rajpipla. Having no son of his own, he summoned to his court his sister's younger son Samarsinhji, a Gohil boy.

Samarsinhji's father Mokhadaji had held Ghogha and the island of Piram until Muhammad bin Tughluq's troops killed him in 1347. Samarsinhji took the name Arjunsinhji, succeeded Chokrana and became the founder of the Gohil ruling line of Rajpipla State.
