Senaraja Ballalasena did not introduce the Kaolinya system in Bengal.
The name of Senraj Ballalasena is associated with the origin of the Kaulinya system Senraj Ballalasena is said to have introduced the Kaulinya system in Bengal But there is no mention of the Kaulinya system in any copperplate edict or literature of the Sen period Thus, it is not historically accepted that King Ballalasena introduced the Kaulinya system.
However, the chronology of the Vaidyajati shows that the Vaidyas enjoyed the Kaulinya status for their virtues of learning, money, virtue, etc It was determined by the Samajapathi of the community, the author of the Kulajigrantha, and the group of Ghatakas.

১৬৫৩ খ্রিস্টাব্দের লেখা রামকান্তের "সদ্বৈদ্যকুলপঞ্জিকা" (কারো মতে, "কবিকণ্ঠহার") গ্রন্থে স্পষ্ট বলা হচ্ছে----
"Acharo binyo vidya prathisthana, tirthadarshanam. Nishtha vrittistapo dana navadha kulashnisham. Purushottammetiddhi vadantayadhunika: again. Pura vaidya-kulodbhuta-vallalen mahaujasa. Niyamashepi cha kaulinyang duhishenadi-vamsheje.".
That is, the nine virtues - achar, vinaya, vidya, pratishtha, tirthadarshana, nishtha, vrischana, tapasya, and dana - are the causes of Kaolinya according to the ancients, but according to the moderns, the Vaidyavamsi king Vallalasena introduced the Kaolinya system into Vaidyasamaj Since the text is dated 1653 CE, the story of Vallalasena introducing the Kaolinya system into Vaidyasamaj is said to have been introduced in the 17th century CE.
There are also differences in Ballalasena's caste Vaidyas claim Vallalasena to be a Vaidyajati, while Kayasthas claim him to be a Kayastha But he was actually a Karnata native Kshatriya or Brahmakshatriya.

The Bengal Kaulinya largely influenced the Rādhīya and Varendra Brahmin societies Later, it was gradually introduced into various societies, including the Vaidyas and the Kayasthas As in Bengal, the Kaulinya tradition was also prevalent in Mithila According to the Mithila legend, the Karnata-born king Harisinga or Harsimha introduced the Kaulinya system to Mithila in the first quarter of the 14th century CE.
There were, however, links between the social systems of Bengal and Mithila For example, the Maithil Brahmins had their settlement at Gangoli, which is Gaagi Gaagi is Gaagri Gaagi is Gaagri Gangoli is the surname of the Rādhia Brahmins, which is Ganguli or Gangopadhyā, which is derived from the name of the village of the settlement.
The origin of the Kaulinya system and Kuljigrantha in Brahmin society in eastern India is known from the Bongaon copperplate of Palaraja Vigrahapala III (c AD 1) The place once belonged to Mithila It is now in the Saharsa district of northern Bihar.

পালরাজ তৃতীয় বিগ্রহপালের ১৭ শ বর্ষে বিষুবসংক্রান্তি উপলক্ষে গঙ্গাতীরবর্তী কাঞ্চনপুর থেকে জারি হয়েছিল। এই তাম্রশাসনের ক্রোড়পত্রে উল্লিখিত রয়েছে, ---
"Krodanchanniriye kaccha iti ja sad-brahmananga sthiti-stsmad gohnako dwijottam-grihang vishram-bhuryajvanam. Asmadiddhaleti ja jaatra vibdo yogeswar yatsutah khyatistunga ito'pi nirmal-yasha ghantish-namatmaj. Yo gaudadhipatrseema-gunabhubhu rano vidhyo disangbhupaleshu maitramasam santushtam-chittachit:. Artypaava sasanmatma-halat: kamyapyavandhya-sthingavishramay ch din-dukhit-janasyavudihaivashram.".
That is, the Maithil Brahmin Rajakarmachari of Vigrahapala was Ghantish and his zamindar was the village Basukavarta This Ghantish arranged for a portion of the village to be given to the Kolancha Brahmin Ghantukasarma as a passive donation by depositing a suitable amount of money in the royal treasury It is natural to ask, what is the reason for this land donation by a Maithil Brahmin to a Kolancha Brahmin?.
In reply, the landlord Maithil Brahmin must have arranged the marriage of the donor Kolancha Brahmin to his daughter or someone from his family and after the marriage, he gave the land and made arrangements for her to live in a place near him.
The son of Kaccha is Gohanka, the daughter of Gohanka is Iddahala, the child of Kaccha is Vibda, the son of Vibda is Yogesvara, the son of Yogesvara is Tunga, the son of Tunga, the son of Tunga The extent to which the Maithil Brahmins accorded marital status to the Western and far-flung Kolancha Brahmins is evident from this account.
Simply put, the Kaulinya tradition arose from this interest in establishing relations between the Western Brahmin scholars and the local Brahmins Again, these distant relations are difficult to prove unless they are documented in the Kuljigrantha or Kulpanjika Various inscriptions from the 10th-11th centuries CE indicate that these Kolancha Brahmins settled in Bengal in large numbers.

This is evidenced by the various placenames of Bengal in placenames of Uttar Pradesh, such as Sravasti and Tarkari When Brahmins from Uttar Pradesh started living in the Hili-Balurghat region of North Bengal, the ancient name of the region was "Aahuniyojana " This name changed to " Sravasti" after Sravasti of Uttar Pradesh and another place near it became "Tarkari.
" Another example in this context is " Pataliputra," a place in the southern Arcot district of Tamil Nadu The capital of the ancient Magadha kingdom was "Pataliputra " It is now Patna, Bihar. The Bhatta Brahmins of Pataliputra, Magadha, settled in the place of Arcot in South India and hence named the region ".
Pataliputra " The place is now called " Cuddalore ".
Thus, the Kaulinya system appears to have originated in Mithila during the Pala period Later, it came to dominate Brahmin society in Bengal and Bengal, especially in the Radiya and Varendra Brahmin communities, until the 19th century CE As a result, in the early 19th century CE, the noble Brahmin Krishnasundara Bandyopadhyay of Vajrayogini village in Munshiganj subdivision of present-day Dhaka district in Bangladesh is known to have performed 284 marriages.
Thus, the legend linking Senaraja Ballalasena and his son Lakshmanasena to the origin of the Bengal Kaulinya system has no historical basis.
