Krishna II (r. 878–914 CE) ascended the Rashtrakuta throne after the demise of his illustrious father Amoghavarsha I Nrupatunga. His Kannada name was Kannara.[2] His queen was a Haihaya princess of Chedi called Mahadevi. From the chronology of inscriptions that mention the name of this emperor, it seems Krishna II may have started to rule even during the lifetime of his father. The fact that Amoghavarsha in his last years renounced the affairs of the state in dharmic pursuits supports this claim.[3] The reign of emperor Krishna II saw significant advances in literature, although in the affairs of expansion of the empire, his reign was mixed.[4] During his reign he cultivated matrimonial alliance with Chedis to form military gain.[5]
