An Old Bengal School Kalighat Painting of Kaliya Mardan when Krishna kills the demon Kaliya.
Krishna slowly rose up from the bottom of the river while dancing on Kaliya’s head. When the people saw Krishna, everyone was happy and they danced ecstatically upon Kāliya. At last, Kāliya was pushed into Pātāla where he is said to reside to this day. This event is often referred to as the Kāliya Nāga Mardan.
