Perum Cheral Irumporai, known as the Victor of Tagadur, was a member of the Irumporai line of the Chera dynasty in early historic south India (c. 1st - 4th century CE).[1] Perum Cheral is sometimes identified with Perum Kadungo, the Irumporai Chera royal mentioned in the Pugalur inscriptions.[2][3]
He is famous for the victory of Tagadur of Adigaman chieftain Ezhni. He is the hero of the eighth chapter of the Pathittupattu composed by poet Arichil Kizhar.[4][5]
