Sanjaya said: “People have repeatedly witnessed you plunging into the enemy battle-formations and fighting there against the exceedingly radiant Pāṇḍava great chariot-warriors.” The line underscores the public, undeniable visibility of valor in war: courage is not merely claimed but proven before the eyes of many, and ethical reputation in a dharma-war is shaped by observable conduct amid danger.

Educational Q&A
In a dharma-framed war narrative, true valor and duty are established through observable action: the public repeatedly witnesses the warrior entering enemy formations and standing firm against formidable opponents, making reputation a matter of demonstrated conduct rather than mere assertion.
Sañjaya reports that the warrior addressed has been seen again and again charging into hostile battle-arrays and fighting the brilliant Pāṇḍava champions—an affirmation of intense frontline engagement against elite adversaries.
