Sir pulkeshi 2 defeated harshavardana as mentioned in aihole inscription..why pulkeshi 2 not conquered or annexed northern territories as he defeated harshavardana?
He defeated Harshavardhana to defend his own territory. Understand that it was his home ground. If someone is successful in defending, doesn't mean that they are good in conquering territories also. Moreover, what if Pulakesin II had different plans?

Sir pulkeshi 2 defeated harshavardana as mentioned in aihole inscription..why pulkeshi 2 not conquered or annexed northern territories as he defeated harshavardana?
He defeated Harshavardhana to defend his own territory.
Understand that it was his home ground.
If someone is successful in defending, doesn't mean that they are good in conquering territories also.
Moreover, what if Pulakesin II had different plans?
