The doctrine of ahimsa is fundamental element in the both Hinduism andBuddhism. ... Because it did not demand the rigorous asceticism of Jainism, Buddhism became far morepopular.
A major empire to support Buddhism, the Pala dynasty, fell in the 12th century, and Muslim invaders destroyed monasteries and monuments. According to Randall Collins, Buddhism was already declining in India by the 12th century, but with the pillage by Muslim invaders it nearly became extinct in India in the 1200s.

Buddhism eventually loses popularity because of Hinduism which is grown as the most famous religion in India.
Explanation:
- Buddhism's decline was due to various factors, especially India's regionalization after the conclusion of the Gupta Empire (320–650 CE), which resulted in the loss of influence and contributions as Indian dynasties switched to Hindu Brahmins services.
- Another consideration was the conquest of North India by various groups such as Huns, Turco-Mongols and Persians and the resulting collapse of Buddhist institutions such as Nalanda and religious persecution.
