no mansi it would not just social cultural and economic... he braved so many kings and India was in absolute unrest at that point of time.... there is nothing in Indian history worth mentioning between the time of the kushans till samudragupta came to power. almost 600 years of turmoil. he united entire north of india and much of south too and he ruled for 50 years... and brought peace and justice.. however he does not have as many popular works on him like akbar, shivaji and PRC have been fortunate to have...

Rani Laxmibai 👏 👏 👏
for Rani Lakshmibai, i would say the same thing i have said for chatrapathi Shivaji Maharaj..... I am a great great fan of her... but unfortunately she single handedly had to fight the British and hence more than a queen ruling her empire and taking it to great heights she bravely fought the British and sacrificed her life doing so.... 👏 hats off to the one of the bravest ladies ever....
however if the debate was about the bravest freedom fighter king i would have voted them... if the debate is simply about the greatest king to rule India ever... then....?
another great king worth mentioning is Harshavardhana ... Akbar was the greatest of the mughals and most tolerant of the mughals (but again there are so many theories with regards to how tolerant he actually was). he was most successful at uniting India under the Mughal rule though.
