Vindhyashakti was the founder of the ____ dynasty?
Vakataka
Vindhyashakti was a third-century ruler who established a new dynasty in the central Deccan after the decline of the Satavahanas.
The dynasty he founded is known as the Vakataka dynasty. It ruled parts of central and western India from about the mid-3rd to the mid-6th century CE and reached its peak under his son Pravarasena I.
The Vakatakas are noted for their patronage of Sanskrit literature and for the Ajanta cave paintings, which flourished under Harishena, one of the later kings.
The Kakatiya, Chola and Pandya dynasties belong to south India and were founded by other rulers, not Vindhyashakti.
Hence, Vakataka.
