Question

Short note on krishna dev rai

Answer 1

Krishnadevaraya was undoubtedly the greatest of the Vijayanagar rulers. As it has been rightly observed that his "life was a series of efforts to restore to the State its lost power and prestige, and assure it a permanent peace.

He proved more than a match for the contemporary powers of the Deccan and South India, and recovered most of the lost territories of the empire.

As a warrior, a statesman and a scholar, he excelled all the other rulers of his time in India". He was a great general who won all the battles he fought. It was not only by his military prowess alone that he was successful in planting the boar- standard on the citadels of Cuttack, Bidar, Gulbarga and Bijapur but his organisational skill and tactical moves paid dividends.

The impregnable fort of Udayagiri could only be captured by his resourcefulness. He had to make way for his soldiers to climb after cutting down rocks and boulders. In case of Kondavidu he had to raise wooden platforms as high as the ramparts of the fort to enable his soldiers to fight on the same level.
