Kampila the founder of the Kampili Kingdom having been
originally in the service of Yadava Ramachandra I gained vast
experience in the battle between Hoyisalas and his king, and on the
capture of Ramachandra by Malik Kaffar and removal to Delhi
revolted against the Muslims. He waged war incessantly against
the Muslims, refused to yield, stabilised his kingdom and even
extended it, by conquering a portion of it from the adjacent
kingdom of Ballala.
So Malik Kaffar, the commander of Alauddin of the Khilji
Dynasty, came upon Kampiliraya in vain and returned back
discomfitted. Thence forward, the Kampili kingdom continued
to be independent.
Kampiliraya gave shelter to Harihara and Bukka ministers,
of Prataparudra after the fall of the Kakateeya Dynasty, and
employed them in his own service. Bah-uddin, a relative of Sultan
Mohammad Bin Tuglak rebelled against the Delhi Empire at
Gutasp Sagar but was unfortunately defeated by the Delhi armies.
So he sought refuge under Kampiliraya. Thus Kampila became
a target to the wrath of the Delhi Padushah. In spite of several
invasions against Kampila, the latter successfully resisted and
defeated the armies from Delhi. But in the end, during the siege
of the fort of Hosa in 1327 A. D. Kampilaraya died. His sons,
and the ministers Harihara and Bukka were taken as captives and
were converted into Islam.
At the fall of Kampile, Bahauddin Gustasp sought the shelter
of Ballala of the Hoyisala Kingdom. The armies of Delhi, pursued
Gustasp and entered the Hoyisala kingdom. Ballala was incapable
of resisting the Delhi forces. So he arrested Gustasp and
surrendered him to the Delhi Sultan. Mohammad-Bin-Tuglak,
