'''Vakpatiraja II''' (r. c. 1026-1040 CE) was an Indian king belonging to the [[Chahamanas of Shakambhari|Shakambhari Chahamana dynasty]]. He ruled the Sapadalaksha country, which included parts of present-day [[Rajasthan]] in north-western India.

Vakpati succeeded his father [[Govindaraja II]] as the Chahamana king.{{sfn|R. B. Singh|1964|p=123}} The ''[[Prabandha Kosha|Prabandha-Kosha]]'' calls him "Vallabha".{{sfn|Dasharatha Sharma|1959|p=34}}

According to ''[[Prithviraja Vijaya]]'', Vakpati defeated and killed Ambaprasada, the ruler of Aghata (identified with modern [[Ahar, Rajasthan|Ahar]]). Historian R. B. Singh identifies Ambaprasada with the [[Guhilas of Medapata|Guhila]] ruler Amaraprasada.{{sfn|R. B. Singh|1964|pp=123-124}}

Later texts such as ''Surjana-Charita'', ''Hammira-Kavya'' and ''Prabandha-Kosha'' claim that Vakpati defeated [[Bhoja]], the [[Paramara dynasty|Paramara]] king of [[Malwa]]. These sources provide also provide some fictitious details about the supposed conflict. However, this claim is not reliable.{{sfn|Dasharatha Sharma|1959|p=34}}

Vakpati was succeeded by his son [[Viryarama]], who was killed by Bhoja. Subsequently, [[Chamundaraja (Chahamana dynasty)|Chamundaraja]] ascended the Chahamana throne. According to historian R. B. Singh, Virayarama and Chamundaraja were sons of Vakpati.{{sfn|R. B. Singh|1964|p=124}} Dasharatha Sharma, however, considers all three as sons of [[Govindaraja III]].{{sfn|Dasharatha Sharma|1959|p=34}}
