Question

Why was there war between Harsh and Pulkeshi II? Why did they not wage war again?

Answer 1

Pulakeshin II did defeat the Pallavas and there was always a great rivalry between the Pallava and north kingdoms. Pulakeshin was a ruler of Badami and he challenged Harsa’s conquests.

He was the lord of South and Harsha was the ruller of the North. Unwilling to tolerate the existence of a powerful rival in the south, Harsha had marched from Kanauj with a huge force.

Such was Pulakeshin’s efficiency in guarding the passes of the Narmada that Harsha was compelled to accept the river as the demarcation and retire from the battlefield after losing most of his elephant force.
