# Salva, Dantavakra and Viduranath Slayed

Salva, who had been defeated at Rukmini’s abduction, worshipped Siva to gain revenge against the Yadus. Siva awarded him with a flying, iron city named Saubha. Thus equipped, Salva bombarded Dwaraka, but Pradyumna valiantly fended him off for many days. The battle between Salva and the Yadus lasted for twenty-seven days, until Krishna arrived back from Indraprastha. Defying Salva’s illusory tricks, Krishna released His spinning disc, Sudarshan Chakra, and killed the demoniac magician.

Dantavakra, Salva’s associate, took a vow to avenge his friend’s death, but Krishna effortlessly bludgeoned his chest. Viduranath, Dantavakra’s brother, also decided to attack Krishna, but he met a similar fate as Salva, being decapitated by the Sudarshan Chakra.

Having annihilated these demons, Krishna visited Vrindavana for two months, and then returned to Dwaraka.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://bhagavata.keshavaswami.com/canto-10-part-2/m.a.d/d-demons-devotees-and-divinity-71-90/salva-dantavakra-and-viduranath-slayed.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
