Kakil or Kankil was a king of the Kachhwaha dynasty and successor of Dulha Rai, who ruled the Dhundhar region with their capital at Khoh in present-day Rajasthan.[2][3][4]
Kakil was born to mother Maruni and father Dulha Rai.[5] While some sources present Dulha Rai as her grandfather.[6]
Dulha Rai died in 1036 AD, after which Kakil was crowned the Kachhwaha king.[7] Whereas according to Jadunath Sarkar, he became the success of Dulha Rai in 1070 AD.[8]
In some sources, the victory over Amber has been attributed to Kakil.[9][10] Whereas this victory is of his son Maidul Rao which happened in 1150 AD.[11][12]
