(1) Lack of a powerful central authority:
There was no powerful central authority in India that could have offered strong resistance to the invaders as did the Magadha empire at the time of Alexander’s invasion.
(2) Disunity among the Rajput rulers:
As stated by Dr. Iswari Prasad, “State fought against state for leadership and there was no paramount power which could effectively hold them together by any principle of unity or cohesion.” There were tough mutual fights among Rajputs states, particularly among the Chauhans and the Rathors, the Chandelas and the Chalukyas and the Pratiharas, Palas and the Rashtrakutas. According to Chandbardai, “Ninety out of a hundred of Prithviraj’s ‘Samantas’ (chiefs) fell in his conflicts with Jai Chand on account of his carrying away Samyukta.”
