'''Bala-prasada''' ([[IAST]]: Bālaprasāda, r. c. 1055-1070 CE) was an Indian king belonging to the [[Chahamanas of Naddula|Naddula Chahamana dynasty]]. He ruled the area around [[Naddula]] (present-day Nadol in [[Rajasthan]]).<br />

== Reign ==<br />
<br />
Balaprasada was the eldest son of his predecessor [[Anahilla]]. According to an inscription, he defeated other rulers even as a child. This suggests that he ascended the throne at a young age.{{sfn|Dasharatha Sharma|1959|p=127}}<br />
<br />
According to the Chahamana records, the [[Chaulukya]] king [[Bhima I]] had imprisoned another ruler named Krishnadeva; Balaprasada forced Bhima to release Krishnadeva. Historian D. C. Ganguly identified Krishnadeva with Krishnaraja, a ruler of the [[Paramara dynasty#Branches and claimed descendants|Paramara branch]] of [[Bhinmal]].{{sfn|R. B. Singh|1964|p=245}} According to historian [[Dasharatha Sharma]], Balaprasada ''requested'' (not forced) Bhima release Krishnaraja, which indicates that he accepted Bhima's suzerainty.{{sfn|Dasharatha Sharma|1959|p=127}}<br />
<br />
Balaprasada appears to have died without issue, as he was succeeded by his younger brother [[Jendraraja]].{{sfn|R. B. Singh|1964|p=246}}<br />
