Dear Ole,
Thank you for your reply.

There are two parallel texts, one Chinese and one Tibetan. The Tibetan
gives a standard translation for *kharjuuri and the Chinese has the
transcription of a Prakrit form. The reason why I wondered about an
Ardha-magadhi connection is because the word is given as a gotra name for a
family in Saurashtra c150CE.
Best wishes,
