डॉ. अनुपम सिंह^[4] ने लिखा है.... त्रिलोचनपाल (1019 ई.) - [पृ.67]: यशपाल - [पृ.67]: त्रिलोचनपाल के उत्तराधिकारी के विषय में भी विस्तृत वर्णन नहीं किया जा सकता परन्तु फिर भी 1036 ई. के प्रयाग अभिलेख में महाराजाधिराज यशपाल के दान का वर्णन है. संभव है कि यह यशपाल ही त्रिलोचनपाल के पश्चात कन्नौज का राजा हुआ. कुछ समय पश्चात राज्य पूर्ण रूप से कन्नौज राज्य से समाप्त हो गया और उसके स्थान पर कन्नौज में एक दूसरे राजवंश (गहड़वाल वंश) का उदय हुआ. ^[5]
