Chanakya Pandit knows them all over the world today.
Whose policies are used today all over the world


They used to teach at Taxila, the first university in the world at that time.

I went to King Dhanananda for 1 day to talk about the foreign invasion, but King Dhanananda drove him away.

And in front of everyone in the whole assembly, they were beaten up and fired, which on seeing this, the Pandit was very angry and took a pledge.

He said that I will uproot its kingdom and bring a good king instead.


And then it was from here that Chandragupta Maurya began to become king:-


Chanakya made Chandragupta Maurya his disciple.

Chanakya taught Chandragupta against Nanda. He taught them weapons and scriptures and accomplished everything.


Chandragupta Maurya has formed his own small army and attacked them in the kingdom of Thana Nanda many times but them No success

After several attempts, he finally succeeded and captured his capital Pataliputra.

And Chandragupta overthrew Nand Dynasty and became the king there.
