Introduction
Narendradeva (Nepali: नरेन्द्रदेव) was a Thakuri king of Nepal who reigned from c. 1140–1147.
Life
Narendradeva was a brother of Indradeva. Indradeva had ruled from c. 1126 instead of the then heir apparent, Mahendradeva, a son of Simhadeva. Narendradeva started as a governor of Bhadgaon during the reign of Indradeva. He kept that position until Indradeva's son Manadeva died. Manadeva had no children and Narendradeva succeeded his nephew as the king.
Narendradeva did not have any legitimate heirs and was succeeded by Aanandadeva, a son of Simhadeva, in 1147.
