Angada: The Devoted Prince Regent of Kishkinda and Mighty Warrior of Ramayana
Angada is the son of Vali and Tārā. Vali was the brother of Sugriva, who was banished from his kingdom after the latter left him trapped inside the cave, mistaking Vali to be dead.
Post the death of Vali by Shri Ram, Angada was coronated as the Prince Regent of Kishkinda.
Angada was also the chief of the monkey army who were sent to the southern part of Bharat for expedition and search of Sita.
Angada is also described as a very strong leader who possesed extraordinary might, skilled in killing many ogres single handedly.
The son of Vali killed many ogres like Kampana, Prajangha, Mahaparshwa and army too.
His sincerity and devotion towards Shri Ram and Sugriva is highlighted plenty of times throughout the itihasa. One such instance is when the time allotted to the battalion for searching Sita crossed, he proclaims to leave his ghost by abandoning food and water. However on the advice of Jambavan, he takes a step back.
In short, Angada was one among the mighty heroes in the army of Shri Ram who showcased his devotion and sincerity in multiple instance. He was the son of Vali and later throned as the Prince Regent of Kishkinda after his death and post the war.
