Q. What was the capital of the Hindushahi dynasty during Mahmud Ghaznavi's invasion?
Answer:
Waihind
Notes: During Mahmud of Ghazni's invasions, the capital of the Hindushahi dynasty, particularly during the battle against Anand Pala in 1013 AD, was Waihind (also spelled as Udabhandapura), which was located near present-day Peshawar. While the Hindushahi rulers had previously moved their capital to Peshawar, Waihind served as a significant capital and the site of a major battle against Mahmud of Ghazni.
