Nedunjeliyan II
Nedunjeliyan II () was one of the Early Pandya Kings.  He defeated a confederacy of the Cholas and Cheras at Talaiyalanganam near Tiruvarur and conquered most of the Tamil country establishing him as an important ruler for his time. His deeds have been described in detail in the Maduraikkanci.

Reign 

Nedunjeliyan II was a descendant of Nedunjeliyan I. His reign has been arbitrarily fixed in the early part of the 3rd century AD. Nedunjeliyan II ascended the throne at an early age and soon after, the kingdom was invaded by the Cheras and Cholas. Nedunjeliyan II defeated the invaders and pursued the retreating forces to Talaiyalanganam, deep inside Chola territory. The Chera king Mandaranjeral Irumporai was taken captive by Nedunjeliyan.

Following his victory at Talaiyalanganam, Nedunjeliyan mounted a campaign against the Velirs and Millalai and Muttur.
