Remember the greatest Indian for that matter greatest warrior of the world is none other than Hemu (Hemachandra Vikramaditya) who won 17 battles continuously from Bengal to Afghanistan but back stabbed by the babur in panipat war!

we did not remember him he is the last Hindu emperor of Delhi He was a Brahman but was a terror in enemy fronts

I salute him and his valor !!!!

To me there are several Rulers (kings Emperors) who are qualified for such a title.

  • Chandragupta
  • Ashoka the Great
  • Harsha Vardhana
  • Rajendra Chola & His father (Raja Raja Chola)
  • Shivaji Chatrapati (Readily the best)
  • Akbar the Great

All of them deserve equal rights to be considered as the most powerful and greatest warriors (war lords) of India.

Perfectly place and great use of Pictures, but "Rajendra Chola" extended his empire beyond the shore to Andaman & Nicobar islands, Maldives and even made south eastern Countries (in Thailand,  Malaysia pay tribute to him.
