Threshold
   Decoded source span and focus:
• Source block decoded in this chapter
• This chapter begins with the formal heading “अथ भानुपुनुर पु पनिचोभ
   ग्रामारम्भः.” It decodes the Panichobh register from Ramdev , Thitho , Gangesh ,
   Mahesh , Jiveshwar , Bhanukar , Suryakar , Aditya , Ratnakar , Buddhikar , Gunakar ,
   Matikar , Ravikar , Shrikar , Chandrakar , Jivdhar , Shrinath , Hiraram , Parashuram /
   Parshi , Ugni , Hingu , Durgadatt , Narayandatt , Khadgamani , Shilanath ,
   Gangadhar , Anantram , Bhavdev , Bhajan , Ranjan , and the later Koilakh -
   Rashadhya close. It stops before “अथ रूचौलि एकहरा ग्रामारम्भः.”

   Decoded source span and focus:
• Reading principle
• The heading marks a new village register , not a continuation of Sakuri - Belauch. The
   grammatical sequence begins at Panichobh with Ramdev and moves through “ सुता”
   clusters , father - son links , place tags , and marital transfers. The internal subheading
   “पद्मपुर पु पनिचोभ सॅ धरमपुर पु देशे चिकनीः” is kept inside this chapter
   because it continues the Ugni - Anantram and Bhavdev - Ranjan branch of the same
   Panichobh field.

  1. The Panichobh opening: Ramdev, Thitho,
Jiveshwar, and Bhanukar
   The source opens with “पनिचोभ सॅ बीजी रामदेवः.” Ramdev gives Thitho ,
Gangesh , and Mahesh. Thitho then gives Jiveshwar , and Jiveshwar
gives Bhanukar , Suryakar , and Aditya. This establishes a compact first

descent : Ramdev to Thitho , Thitho to Jiveshwar , and Jiveshwar to the
Bhanukar - Suryakar - Aditya generation.
   Bhanukar produces Ratnakar, linked with Bela-Sakaradhi and Hore.
Ratnakar’s descendants are Buddhikar, Gunakar, Matikar, and Ravikar,
connected with Bisfi and Shaktikar. Buddhikar produces Shrikar,
Chhitar, and Dinkar; Shrikar produces Chandrakar, Vibhakar, and
Venika. The passage therefore creates a scholarly-sounding name
sequence of “kar” endings, but the Panji grammar keeps it genealogical
rather than merely honorific.
  Decoded source span and focus:
• Figure - Descendants / linked names - Genealogical value
• रामदेव - थिथो , गंगेश , महेश - Opening Panichobh root.
• थिथो - जीवेश्वर - Intermediate descent point.
• जीवेश्वर - भानुकर , सूर्यकर , आदित्य - Threefold developed branch.
• भानुकर - रत्नाकर - Bela - Sakaradhi and Hore link.
• रत्नाकर - बु द्धिकर , गुणाकर , मतिकर , रविकर - Bisfi - Shaktikar field.
• बु द्धिकर / श्रीकर - श्रीकर , छीतर , दिनकर ; चन्द्रकर , विभाकर , वेणी - The
  named “kar” chain.

 2. Chandrakar, Jivdhar, Shrinath, and the Belauch-
Haho expansion
  Chandrakar produces Pithu and Jivdhar, linked with Tapanpur and
Vidu. The source adds daughters or marital links through Thakura and
Indra. Jivdhar then produces Shrinath, Ramnath, Harinath, another
Shrinath, Shashinath, Gondinath, and Padmanabh, all tied with Belauch
and Haho. This is a dense expansion in which the same root has multiple
male descendants, while the Belauch-Haho tag marks the social field of
the branch.
   Shrinath’s descendants include Hiraram , Mahadev , Jagat , and Bhim ,
linked with Kusmal and Chaudhary Mahesh. Hiraram then gives Shriram
, Parashuram called Parshi , Devaram , Buddhiram , and Hariram , linked
with Bisfi and Keshav. Parashuram / Parshi gives Janaki , Ugni ,
Maniram , and Anantram , linked with Darhiara and Bhagwan. The
chapter’s main middle line emerges from Ugni.

 3. Ugni, Hingu, Durgadatt, Narayandatt, and
Khadgamani
  Ugni’s sons are Hingu and Madhusudan, linked with Darhiara and
Mahesh. Hingu gives Sitaram, Mayaram, and Ghanaram, tied to Katai,
Kamal, Mahav, and Krishnamani. Ghanaram produces Durgadatt and
Vishnudatt, linked with Ullukujouli, Rava, Patiram, Rava Harishwar,
Tatail-Sakaradhi, and Lala.
  Durgadatt’s descendants are Narayandatt, Madhurapati, Kalidatt, and
Bhavanidatt. Their line is connected with Sihouli-Mandar, Rameshwar,
Abhinand, Devanand, Deep-Beharadhi, and Chaudhary Madhubani.
Narayandatt gives Parashmani, Khadgamani, and Harshmani, linked with
Oda-Ekhara, Bhaiya, Buddhianth, Mahishi-Budhwal, and Gonod.
Khadgamani produces Shilanath, Mahaval, and Dharanath, with
Bhadam-Jajival, Manik, Medhan, Dih-Darhiara, and Vidya as place or
marriage anchors.

   field.
• घनाराम - दुर्गादत्त , विष्णुदत्त - Ullukujouli and Sakaradhi connections.
• दुर्गादत्त - नारायणदत्त , मधुरापति , कालीदत्त , भवानीदत्त - Sihouli - Mandar
   and Deep - Beharadhi links.

   Budhwal links.
• खड्गमणि - शिलानाथ , महावल , धरानाथ - Bhadam - Jajival and Dih - Darhiara
   continuation.

 4. Shilanath, Gangadhar, Bhagwan Ji, and the
Hemnagar-Shantinagar-Purnia link
  Shilanath produces Chandrashekhar and Gangadhar , linked with
Bhour - Khandwala , Gopinath , Amiyan , and Ramanath. Gangadhar is
then developed through Loknath , also called Babuaji , and through Kako
- Belauch , Kalar , Mushay / Bouku , Naruad - Karmaha , and

                    Decoding the Panji of Mithila - Volume V | 242
Pushpakant. The source also records Gangadhar’s connection through
Narsam - Baliyas , Teknath , Jankinath , Pali , Chanda , and a daughter -
line through Rajeshwari , Kamalvati , and Nirmala.
   A second Gangadhar-linked daughter passage names Bhagwan Ji,
Chikni, Malangiya-Kujauli, Brajbhushan, Chandrabhushan, Shiva-
Hariam, and Dwarikanath. Bhagwan Ji then gives Manoj and Santosh,
linked with Purdendaha, Ratauli-Darhiara, Doman Datt, and Mahadev.
The line then records a Hemnagar-to-Shantinagar-Purnia note and a
Govind branch: Harikrishna and Govind, with Masuriya, Brahmapura,
Gosain Krishnamani, Gosain Manmohan, Tatail-Sakaradhi, and
Adhikalal. Govind’s descendants include Ashok, Sushil, and Anila,
linked with Bhudi and Garh-Khandwala.

 5. Padmapur-Panichobh to Dharmapur-Desh
Chikni: Anantram and Bhavdev
  The internal heading “पद्मपुर पु पनिचोभ सॅ धरमपुर पु देशे चिकनीः” keeps the
branch inside the broader Panichobh material while shifting place
emphasis. Here Ugni’s son Anantram gives Shukdev , Jaydev ,
Damodar , Balbhadra , and Bhavdev , linked with Darhiara and Mahesh.
Balbhadra produces Hardatt and Bhanudatt , connected through
Sakaradhi , Haridev , Shankar , Sakarhon , and Janai.
   Bhavdev produces Bhajan and Ranjan, linked with Malangiya-Kujauli,
Sadanand, Yashodhar, Jalay, and Paramai. Bhajan gives Amritnarayan,
connected with Khaual, Chaudhary Hari, Dharu, Mahishi-Budhwal, and
Devi. The source then lists additional Bhajan descendants:
Ganganarayan, Ramnarayan, Shrinarayan, and Tulakrishna, tied to
Darhiara, Bhora, Chhaba, Pariyamb-Budhwal, and Menai. This branch
strongly uses Narayan-name continuities to show a later familial cluster.

 6. Ranjan, Indranarayan, Chandranarayan,
Kirtinarayan, and the Koilakh-Rashadhya close
  Ranjan’s descendants are Indranarayan, Chandranarayan, and
Kirtinarayan, linked with Khaual, Basudev, Vaidyanath, Jhauwa-Khalay,
and Shubhankar. Indranarayan produces Lakshminarayan and
Pratapanarayan, tied with Sakaradhi, Durlabh, Nitai, and Belauch-Bala.
Chandranarayan gives Lalitnarayan, Modnarayan, and Harshnarayan,
connected with Pawauli, Manbodh, Ghusaut, and Bhairavdatt.

                Decoding the Panji of Mithila - Volume V | 243
  Lalitnarayan’s line gives Santosh Narayan, also called Mushay, and
reconnects to Rajanpura-Darhiara through Rohini, Dullah, Vishnudatt,
Mahishi-Budhwal, Pathak Buna, and the Kanhouli-Ekhara line of
Halayudh, Baburam, and Buddhinath. Yadunath gives Muktinath,
Bholanath, Umanath, and Rishinath, linked with Deshual-Khandwala,
Dular, Chanan, Khikharu, Jahanpur, Khaual, and Pritinath. Kirtinarayan
gives Babuan, Babuan gives Ugranarayan, and Ugranarayan gives
Ramanand. The brief marker “कोइलख रशाढ.य” closes the block
immediately before the next formal heading.

“अथ रूचौलि एकहरा ग्रामारम्भः.” The following heading begins a separate
Ruchouli-Ekhara register and should be decoded as Chapter 28.
