Apala, according to Indian mythology, was a daughter of sage Atri.

She was deserted by her husband on account of her being suffering from leprosy, which was considered a taboo disease at that time.

She then came back to her father. She underwent severe penance and performed religious rites.

Eventually, she was cured of the disease by Indra.
