Govindaraja IV
Govindaraja IV (r. c. 1192 CE ) was an Indian king belonging to the Chahamana dynasty, which ruled the Sapadalaksha region in present-day north-western India. The Ghurid invaders defeated and killed his father Prithviraja III, while he was still a minor, and appointed him as a vassal ruler of the Chahamana kingdom. His uncle Hariraja dethroned him for accepting the Ghurid suzerainty. Subsequently, Govindaraja established a new branch of the Chahamanas of Ranastambhapura
