Explanation:

1) Hushka, Jushka and Kanishka are three Turushka Kings reigning in Kashmir around 1765-1645 BCE, according to Kalhana.—Kalhana mentions that the three Turushka kings named Hushka, Jushka and Kanishka reigned over Kashmir 150 years after Buddha nirvana (1865 BCE). Most probably, Buddhism reached north-western India before the reign of Kalashoka (1765-1737 BCE). Hushka, Jushka and Kanishka of Gilgit region established their rule in Kashmir and promoted Buddhism. They built three cities in Kashmir namely Hushkapura, Jushkapura and Kanishkapura.

2) King Kanishka, the great patron of Buddhism (1130-1080 BCE).—Kushana King Kanishka flourished 700 years after Buddha nirvana (1865 BCE) as recorded in Samyuktaratnapitakasutra. Thus, Kanishka must be dated after 1165 BCE. Gilgit Manuscript of Vinayavastu also confirms that Kanishka became king 400 years after the nirvana of Vajrapani (1565 BCE). Hiuen Tsang also tells us that King Kanishka’s Guru Sangharaksha lived 700 years after Buddha nirvana.
