Answer 1

Chandragupta first liberated Sind from the yoke of Macedonians. Sind was a part of Alexander’s empire. In the Partition Treaty of Taiharadisus, 321 B.C. the Greek Governor of Sind was transferred to the North-West and as such the post was lying vacant. Chandragupta used Lower Sind as the base of his operation and by 321 B.C. the whole of Sind was conquered by him.After establishing his authority over Punjab, Chandragupta looked towards Punjab. The situation in Punjab was favourable for Chandragupta. By that time, Ambhi of Taxila passed into oblivion. King Porus was assassinated by the Greek general Eudemus who had also fled from India. The decline of Ambhi, murder of Porus and the flight of Eudemus made the task easy for Chandragupta. He conquered Eastern Punjab upto Jhelum.Chandragupta extended his empire further by the conquest of western and southern India. Chandragupta conquered Saurastra and Kathiawar in western India. This fact has been proved by the Girnar Rock Inscription (Modern Junagadh) of Rudradaman. Chandragupta also annexed the neighbouring province of Avanti and its capital Ujjain became a seat of Maurya viceroyalty. The discovery of Asokan Rock Edict in Sopara in Konkan region of Maharashtra refers to the conquest of a part of Maharashtra. Thus in Western India Chandragupta conquered Saurastra, Avanti and Konkan of Maharashtra.



Thus the Maurya Empire under Chandragupta Maurya extended up to the borders of Persia in the north-west; in the east it consisted of Magadha and probably Bengal, in the west it was bounded by the western sea near Saurastra; in the south it extended up to the Chitaldrug district of Mysore and Nellore district of Madras with Pataliputra as its capital.
