King Uttanapada had two wives. Dhruva was the son of Suniti; the elder of the two wives and Uttama was the son of Suruchi the younger wife. Once Suruchi chided Dhruva and taunted him that he was not eligible for the throne. Dhruva felt humiliated by her remarks.
He took an oath that he would become the king by propitiating Lord Vishnu by penance
