  1. In this daring and stormy march of theirs, Chandragupta and
    Chanakya had many times to face very grave dangers to their lives. Once
    their whole army was routed by a violent knock of the opposing forces, and
    Chandragupta and Chanakya had to flee into the forest to save their lives.
    One night they had to sleep on the bare hard ground, but undeterred by any
    of these calamities, Chandragupta and Chanakya formed their armies again
    and again and kept on marching ahead, and in the end, entered the precincts
    of Pataliputra, the Magadhan capital itself.
  2. The arch-diplomat, Chanakya had bribed the army and the people in
    the capital of Nanda. On the strength of this general sedition, the daring
    Chandragupta fell like an arrow-shot upon the city of Pataliputra.
    Mahapadmanand Beheaded
  3. When Chandragupta’s army rushed into the capital, blocking it very
    rigidly from every side, there was a great havoc everywhere. Chandragupta
    himself entered the royal palace but Mahapadmanand had already left it in
    the general disorder that had ensued, and was trying to slip out of the capital
    secretly. He was, however, caught on the way and beheaded almost
    instantaneously.
    Samrat Chandragupta ki Jaya!
  4. Chandragupta was soon proclaimed Emperor of Magadha. He
    adopted Maurya as his family name after that of his mother, Mura. Hence,
    he and his royal dynasty came to be known for ever in history by that very
    name ‘Maurya’. As soon as he publicly ascended the throne of Magadha, he
    appointed Chanakya the Chief Minister of the empire, approximately in
    B.C. 321.
  5. Alexander died round about B.C. 323. It means, therefore, that within
    about two years, Samrat Chandragupta and Chanakya effected this gigantic
    revolution that established the independent and powerful Indian empire,
    dispelling all gloom of despondency and disintegration, while on the other
    side, the Greek feudal lords were quarrelling amongst themselves. In order
    to avail himself fully of this opportunity, Chanakya immediately busied
    himself with the establishment of internal peace and order.
    The basic principle of Chanakya’s Political theory—Military Might
    First
  6. But the peace and order of even a unitary empire ultimately depends
    on its military strength alone, which forms the bedrock of the whole
    imperial structure. This was the basic principle of Chanakya’s political
