Narendra Sena is said to have followed an aggressive policy. Immediately on accession to the throne had to face the attack of Nala king Bhavadatta-varman. After the death of Bhavadatta-varman he defeated his successor Arthapati. Some inscription indicated that he had defeated some enemies and his orders were respected in Kosala, Mekala and Malva. It is just possible that taking advantage of the early difficulties of Skanda Gupta, he might have captured Malva but his rule must have last only for a short time because Skanda Gupta has re-conquered the Malava. It is also possible that after defeating the Nala king of Bastar, he might have captured the states of Mekala and Kosala. |
