ASOKA
Serial No. Name. Position. Remarks.
9 Rummindeî At shrine of Rummindei, about 1 mile N. of Paḍaṛia, 2 miles N. of Bhagwânpur in the Nepalese Tahsîl of that name, and about 6 miles NE. of Dulhâ in the British District of Bastî. 'Paderia' (Bühler). Split by lightning, but standing, the bell member of the capital lies apart, but the crowning member is missing. The commemorative inscription (Plate II) is absolutely perfect.
10 Niglîva On west bank of Niglîva (Nigâlî) Sâgar, near Niglîva village in Nepalese Tarâi, north of the Bastî District, and about 13 miles NW. of No. 9. but not in original position. Broken. Imperfect commemorative inscription in form similar to that of No. 9, and apparently of same year.
