Once when the great archer Arjuna was bathing in river Ganga, Uloopi, the Naga princess, spotted him. She was so impressed by his personality that she dragged him to her kingdom under waters. Here, she proposed to Arjuna who agreed to marry and live with her for a year. At the end of the stipulated time, Arjuna left Uloopi. Years passed but Uloopi never saw Arjuna again.

 

Meanwhile, she had befriended Babruvahan, Arjuna's son by his other wife, Chitrangada. Uloopi was an expert warrior and taught all the skills to Babruvahan, who later became the king of Manipur. When Pandavas performed the Ashvamedh sacrifice, the sacrificial horse was stopped by Babruvahan when it entered his territory.

 

According to the rules, he had to fight the army led by Arjuna. During the fight, Arjuna fell unconscious to an arrow from Babruvahan. Uloopi then rushed to the battlefield and summoned the magical gem of the Nagas and revived Arjuna. Arjuna was happy to reunite with his wife and to see that his son was an accomplished archer.

looks like you need to go to Himalayas and find Vyasadev and ask him about that.

Vysasdev is still there in Himalayas.

 

ask Vyasdev why he never put that in Mahabharat.

 

then, report back here what Vyasdev says.

 

thank-you

Actually there is a reason. Chitrangada's father, before Chitrangada's marriage, had a condition for her marriage. Lord Siva's benediction to their family was that each couple would only have only one offspring. So he said that if Arjuna got a son with Ulupi he must leave him to become the king of Manipura and also that he must never be called from his kingly duties to do wars that did not concern him directly (wars that were not challenged against him). This is the reason why Babhruvahana never entered the Battle of Kurukshetra, although he entered the battle with Arjuna, because Arjuna had directly challenged him.
