Samudra Gupta : Amar Chitra Katha Vol. 648 (P)

Can a music-loving, scholarly prince truly excel as a monarch? Can a fierce and devoted warrior also nurture the growth of the arts and sciences? Samudra Gupta, a ruler of remarkable versatility, proved that both are possible. With his efforts to bring peace to the war-ravaged subcontinent, he allowed his subjects the freedom to explore their creativity. To commemorate the king's achievements, his court official Harishena carefully inscribed them on the Ashoka pillar in Allahabad—a lasting testament to Samudra Gupta's compassion and the harmony he fostered throughout his reign.
