During the 8th century AD, a struggle for control over Kannauj took place among three major empires of India namely the Palas, the Rastrakutas and the Gurjar-Pratiharas. The Palas ruled over Eastern part of India while the Rastrakutas ruled over the Deccan region of India. The Western part of India was in control of the Gurjar-Pratiharas. The struggle for control over Kannauj among these three dynasties is known as the Tripartite Struggle in Indian history. The three dynasties that involved in the struggle were interested in Kannauj due to the fact that it formed an important center for trade and commerce.
