Historical Notes : According to Strabo (64/63 BC–c.24 AD), the ceded territories bordered the Indus:
According to Pliny (23/24 AD–c.79 AD) Seleucus surrendered the easternmost provinces of Arachosia, Gedrosia, Paropamisadae and perhaps also Aria. On the other hand, he was accepted by other satraps of the eastern provinces.
Mauryan control of territory in what is now Afghanistan helped guard against invasion of India from the northwest. Chandragupta Maurya went on to expand his rule in India southward into the Deccan .[20]Sudarshana Lake is a man made lake in the Girnar Mountain ranges of Junagadh, in India. The lake was created sometime after 325 BCE upon the orders of Chandragupta Maurya, the founder and first emperor of the Maurya Empire. Chandragupta appointed Pushyagupta Vaishya, as a provisional governor of the Maurya Empire.[21]
