Udal

was a Rajput general in the army of Parmal of Mahoba in the 12^th century. Parmal raised Udal as his own son, since he was born after the death of his father Dassraj, who – a general himself – was killed in the service of Parmal. Udal was generally seen on a horse whereas Alha, his elder brother, on an elephant. Both are among the greatest warriors of Mahoba. In a battle with Prithviraj Chauhan Udal injured Chauhan but was killed himself.
