4. Rajendra chola defeated Mahipala and annexed his kingdom.

Explanation:

• The Pala dynasty, a dynasty that ruled the Indian states of Bihar and Bengal from the 8th to the 12th century.
• Its founder, Gopala, was a local chief who came to power during the period of anarchy in the mid-8th century.
• His successor, Dharmapala (r. 770-810) greatly expanded the kingdom and ruled Kanauj for a time.
• Pala's power was under Devapala (ruling c. 810–850), raiding in the north, the Deccan, and the peninsula.
• However, the dynasty then declined, and in the late 9th and early 10th centuries, the Gurujara Pratihara emperor Mahendrapala of Kannauj advanced into North Bengal.
• Pala's strength was restored by Mahipala I (r. 988-1038), and his influence reached as far as Varanasi, but after his death the kingdom weakened again.
• The medieval Chola emperor Rajendra Chola I led an expedition into northern India from 1019 to 1024.
• The expedition passed through Bengi, Kalinga, Odda and Bengal and reached the Ganges.
• The Chola victory over the Pala King Mahipala I is considered the culmination of the expedition.
