Kshatradharman

Kshatradharman was a warrior allied with the Pāṇḍavas, and he fought at Kurukshetra. Bhīshma names him in the Rathātiratha-Saṃkhyāna, his count of the rathas (chariot warriors).

In Bhīshma’s count

Bhīshma lists Kshatradharman among the Pāṇḍava warriors. He is one of the few on the Pāṇḍava side to receive the title ardharatha, “half-ratha”. This means he had real skill in battle, but it was below the standard of a full ratha.
