In 1082CE, Soomras of Umerkot invaded karentigadh, all the makwanas including Kesardev and his 9 sons were killed.[6][7] Harpaldev survives and takes shelter under the chalukyan king Karna who was his maternal uncle.[8][9]
In October 1093 Harpal dev married Shakti-De who was the either thr daughter of Karna Solanki or the niece of Karna and daughter of Pratap Solanki.[10] Shakti-de is believed to be the incarnation of Goddess Shakti and Harpaldev was the añsh-avtáar of Lord Shiva.[1][11]
Harpaldev defeated a tribal chieftain Babaro and married the niece of Karnadev solanki.[8] In the year 1093 Harpaldev found a new Kingdom of 2300 villages in saurashtra Region and named it Jhalavad with the capital Patdi.[8][11]
When Maharaja Karna and his son Jayasimha were fighting tribal bhils far from their capital Patan, Babaro (a monster looking nomad from sindh) attacked Patan where he was defeated by Harpaldev.[12][5]
In March 1108, Harpaldev recaptured his ancestral capital Karentigadh from the soomras and captured the Soomra ruler Unnd Amir.[8][9]
