About King KASHYA KING OF KASI

In the epic Mahabharata, Ambalika (Sanskrit: अम्बालिका, ambālikā) is the daughter of Kashya, the King of Kashi, and wife of Vichitravirya, the King of Hastinapur. Along with her sisters, Amba and Ambika, Ambalika was taken by force by Bhishma from their Swayamvara, the latter having challenged and defeated the assembled royalty.
