In spite of clear evidence borne out of subsequent developments – world scholars have not taken the interest to study these facts further. How are we to believe that:
01.) A man (Alexander) known for his cruelty,
02.) Suspected for the murder of his father, cousins, and Basus of Bactria,
03.) A man who considered himself as a demi God and demanded implicit obedience,
04.) A man who burned down cities and took his enemies women,
05.) A man who without reason killed his best friend and able general,
06.) A man who entered into war against Porus with intentions of making Porus’s head roll, like that of king Darias.
On a mere brave answer by Porus Alexander spared his life, returned his entire kingdom and also added to his territories. The real fact is that Porus had defeated Alexander, which is further proven by the fact that – Taxila (owned by Alexander allai) was handed over to Porus & the king Abhisar refused to meet Alexander (had Alexander won the battle Abhisar would have rushed to Alexander to make peace).

Alexander did not fear the advance but his army was tired and wanted to go home so the news were spread among soldiers about the might of Nanda dynasty, it was not the fear but the exhaustion of soldier that made Alexander turn away, the one who mockery of the mightiest Empire of time, Persia will not be deffered by a comparatively smaller power like Nanda..
