His ''{{IAST|Dvitīyā Rājataraṅginī}}'' is a continuation of [[Kalhana|Kalhana's]] ''{{IAST|[[Rajatarangini|Rājataraṅginī]]}}'' and brings the chronicle of the kings of Kashmir down to the time of the author's patron [[Zain-ul-Abidin]] (r. 1418-1419 and 1420-1470). Jonaraja, however, could not complete the history of the patron as he died in the 35th regnal year. His pupil, {{IAST|Śrīvara}} continued the history and his work, the ''{{IAST|Tritīyā Rājataraṅginī}}'', covers the period 1459–86.&lt;ref&gt;Majumdar, R.C. (ed.) (2006). ''The Delhi Sultanate'', Mumbai:Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, p.466&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> In his ''{{IAST|Dvitīyā Rājataraṅginī}}'', Jonaraja has vividly described the decline of the Hindu ruling dynasty and the rise of the Muslim ruling dynasty in Kashmir.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> {{reflist}}<br /> <br /> ==Bibliography==<br /> * ''Kingship in Kaśmīr (AD 1148‒1459); From the Pen of Jonarāja, Court Paṇḍit to Sulṭān Zayn al-‛Ābidīn.''
