akrura uvaca

bho bho vaicitravirya tvam

 kurunam kirti-vardhana

bhratary uparate pandav

 adhunasanam asthitah

 

Translation: 

 

Akrura said: O my dear son of Vicitravirya, O enhancer of the Kurus’ glory, your brother Pandu having passed away, you have now assumed the royal throne.

 

Purport: 

 

Akrura was speaking ironically, since the young sons of Pandu should actually have been occupying the throne. Upon the death of Pandu, they were too young to immediately govern and so were put in Dhrtarastra’s care, but now sufficient time had passed, and their legitimate rights should have been recognized.
