Krishna - Retold From The Bhagawat Puran - English | by Anant Pai/ Story Book

Kansa captured the throne of Mathura by imprisoning his aged father. Commanding a formidable army, he thought he was invincible. The threat to his power came from an unexpected quarter, from a shepherd boy named Krishna, who was rumored to be the eighth child of his cousin Devaki’s. It was the divine prophecy that Kansa would be thrown to his fate at the hands of Devaki’s eighth child.
