Sagot :

Answer:

Explanation:

Dear Aabha,

Chandragupta Maurya’s grandson Ashoka has recently taken throne of the Mauryan Empire. To my astonishment, Ashoka is unlike any other ruler, his remarkable transformation of the kingdom came not through intense violence but with peace. He has embraced Buddhism and the messages of tolerance and nonviolence in which he is spreading throughout the empire. At first, I had feared that Ashoka would act in similar ways to past rulers. But it's evident that he is using his power to make the lives of his fellow Indian people better. I've come to realize that people are beginning to place less importance on the caste system. He has encouraged the construction of irrigational systems and medicine development, constructed roads, softened the severe system of justice, and has extended ideas of non-violence by forbidding the sacrifices connected with the murder of animals. So far, I think Ashoka is the greatest and noblest ruler of Indian I have ever witnessed.

Hope this helps ^_^
