Lalitaditya MuktaPida was most celebrated ruler of Kashmir in modern history. He was so much ambitious and powerful that his empire was spread from Western Asia to Bengal and from Karnataka in South to Central China.
He ruled from 724 CE to 760 CE.

Lalitaditya belonged to Karkota Dynasty. This dynasty derives it's name from Karkotaka Naag who was one of the major members of Nagas born from Sage Kashyap and Maata Kadru.
Lalitaditya also Promoted Architecture and built marvelous structures.

The famous temple Martanda Sun Temple which has been destroyed by Invaders was built by him.
It's sad that today's history textbooks don't give him due respect.

He must be placed above the rank of Alexander, Napoleon, Chengiz Khan in the list of conquerers.
