Story of Rishi Galava and Prince Rtadhvaja is found in the
Markandeya Purana. Sage Galava was famous for his austerity and piety but he
was oppressed by a demon due to a sin committed during one of his births.
To escape from the demon, Rishi Galava took refuge in the palace
of King Satrujita.
King Satrujita could not defeat the demon.
The king had a brave and powerful son named Rtadhvaja.
Riding on a divine horse, gifted by Sage Galava, Rtadhvaja
defeated the demon and forced him to flee to the netherworld.
