The Gupta ruler known as the ‘Napoleon of India’ is Samudragupta.
This title was given to him by the British historian Vincent Arthur Smith due to his military conquests and expansionist policies, which resembled those of Napoleon Bonaparte. Samudragupta significantly expanded the Gupta Empire through numerous successful campaigns across the Indian subcontinent.
