Answer:
Ashoka wanted to spread Dhamma because :
(i) Ashoka felt that he had a duty to instruct his subject and he was also inspired by the teachings of the Buddha.
(ii) A number of problems such as the people in the Empire followed different religions, and this sometimes lead to conflict that troubled him a lot.
(iii) Slaves and servants were ill treated besides; there were quarrels in families and amongst neighbours.
(iv) Ashoka felt it was his duty to solve these problems. So, he appointed officials, known as the Dhamma mahamatta who went from place to place teaching people about Dhamma.
